Vancouver, BC -- (SBWire) -- 12/07/2009 -- Blenz Coffee is running their crowd-pleasing Belgian hot chocolate promotion for the month of December, in keeping with this traditionally chocolate-y time of year, and will be warming the hearts and souls of true fans of hot chocolate. And two lucky people will have the added thrill of a phenomenal Rubens Chocolate gift basket, each worth $175.00. “We’ve enjoyed a really solid relationship with Blenz over the years, so we’re excited to be participating in this promotion.
"We’ve put together a sampling of our most popular treats for two lucky winners,” says Andy Kieselbach, product development and sales for JHS Chocolate Works, supplier to Rubens Chocolate.
For the past three years Blenz The Canadian Coffee Company has been serving a distinctly superior hot chocolate beverage made from authentic Belgian chocolate chips blended with freshly steamed milk, adhering to their core philosophy of making delicious specialty beverages strictly from scratch. Blenz Coffee customers have long enjoyed Blenz assortment of specialty coffees and loose leaf teas, but when Blenz began using Belcolade authentic chocolate chips to make their specialty hot chocolate beverages, an unexpected but very enthusiastic new fan base grew.

Whether you’re a fan of dark, milk, or white chocolate, Blenz offers a hot chocolate just for you!”
