Is Velvetiser worth the money?

Short answer - it depends on how much you'll use it. If you're a hot choc lover who has a couple a week and will opt to make them at home instead of purchasing out, then you'll make your money back in no time.

That said, it's important - especially at current - to invest wisely, so weigh up how much you'll use it pre *adding to basket* to make sure it doesn't end up gathering dust at the back of the cupboard.
