Matilda in a Mug

The Limited-Edition Matilda Hot Chocolate at Haute Dolci

For Chocolate Week, Haute Dolci introduces Matilda in a Mug, a limited-edition hot chocolate inspired by our most talked-about dessert.

Available for one week only, from 26 January to 1 February, the Matilda Hot Chocolate is a rich, dessert-style hot chocolate created for true chocolate lovers. Served exclusively in store, it will disappear from menus at the end of the week.

What Is the Matilda Hot Chocolate?

The Matilda Hot Chocolate is not a standard hot chocolate. It is thick, theatrical, and designed to be experienced fresh.

Crafted using a rich Belgian chocolate base, blended with steamed milk and cream, it delivers a smooth, velvety texture with deep chocolate intensity. Each mug is finished generously, drawing directly from the richness and indulgence that made Matilda iconic.

Warm, layered, and unapologetically chocolate, it’s a dessert-style hot chocolate designed to be as visually striking as it is comforting. The result is a deeply indulgent, dessert-style hot chocolate that is as visually striking as it is comforting.

Why Everyone Is Talking About It

Launched for Chocolate Week, celebrating World Chocolate Cake Day and National Hot Chocolate Day, the Matilda Hot Chocolate was created as a one-off experience.

It is designed to feel:

Exclusive
Indulgent
Short-lived

Once the week ends, the Matilda Hot Chocolate will be removed from menus and will not return.

The Cake Behind the Mug

The Matilda Hot Chocolate is inspired by Matilda Cake by HD — the dessert our customers come back for time and time again. Rich chocolate sponge layered with smooth ganache, finished generously, and widely known as the Matilda Cake worth travelling for.

Matilda Cake is served every day across Haute Dolci.
