Tea & hot chocolate for trade — quick answers

Will this work with our machine?

Most of the range is machine-independent — kettle, boiler or steam wand. If you're pairing powders with a bean-to-cup or instant ingredient machine, call the trade team and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.

How do I work out cost per serve?

Divide the pack price by the serves per pack shown in the description — or use our cost-per-cup calculator to model the full drink including milk and cup.

Is there a minimum order?

No — order single packs or by the case. Tea, hot chocolate, coffee and syrups can travel in one order, delivered together to UK mainland addresses.

Can we taste before switching?

Yes — request a trade sample pack and tell us what you serve today; we'll match a selection to your menu and volumes.
