Fontana Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce, 63 fl oz

Love this chocolate!! I can use it to make mochas at home like I get from Starbucks.

Great for making my Starbucks cafe mocha’s. Can’t be beat.

I am editing my original review that I wrote several years ago. I used to buy this directly from Starbucks on the Starbucks website, but when Starbucks quit selling directly I found it on Amazon using a google search. The first year or so (2018-2019) buying from Amazon or eBay was fine. Then I noticed the price going up. From $24.95 directly from Starbucks up to as high as $40 on Amazon or eBay. About 2-3 years ago (2022-2023) I opened the bottle and about threw up. The neck of the bottle was all moldy. I checked the best buy date and it had expired, even though I had just received it the day before. I was sent a replacement, but the use by date was immediate, within the next 30 days. I was able to use it by that date by keeping it in the fridge. I’ve tried twice since then and both times received expired sauce. By screaming loud enough I did get refunded by Amazon, but I don’t know if Amazon has resolved the issue with the seller. I’m afraid to order it again and that sucks, because it is super yummy. The bittersweet chocolate makes the drink really good without it being so super sweet that it’s yucky. Nothing more needs to be said this is just the BEST. I will never buy Hershey syrup again. It mixes in cold milk, which surprised me. When I go to Starbucks and get hot cocoa they use this syrup and they always make it hotter because they say it melts better, but it mixes just fine with cold milk too.

Love all the Fontana syrups! It’s what Starbucks uses!

This is great sauce, but not what I really wanted. Some reviews stated that it was great for making Starbucks Mocha at home. WRONG! This is nothing like what Starbucks uses for Mocha lattes, because this sauce is much too sweet to be comparable to Starbucks. If that's what you want it for, look elsewhere. If, like me, you're already stuck with it and trying to make something "mocha-ish" out of it just to use it up, try adding a heaping teaspoon of cocoa powder (get the good stuff, like Ghirardelli) to 3-4 pumps of this sauce for a venti-sized mocha latte. It's still not perfect, but it's better.

Wish is was a little cheaper. But my wife loves off this…

It arrived in a timely fashion and packaged well. However the expiration date of the product is in several days. Normally when I order this product, the expiration date is in several months. The product inside the bottle is rather gloppy, if that’s a word. It’s not as smooth as it normally is.

Being on parental leave for a few weeks, I wanted to have an alternative to drive out to the coffee shop to get my mocha. Plus it was getting quite expensive at $5+ each drink. With this I can create my own and they taste the same! Edit: after using it every morning for a week or so, I have noticed that the pump tube doesn't go to the bottom of the bottle!! So about half way, you can't use the pumnp anymore. I have tried to extend it but it doesn't seem to be possible (not easy when it's full of syrup now). I guess I'll have to try and find anothe rpump that's longer. Edit #2: Well I have reordered and bought two units this time. The pumpes came both in the same bag, and they both has plastic tube extensions.. So the previous comment does not apply this time and I can reach the bottom! Not sure if it's a new thing to send the extensions or it's only when you order a pair... Worse case I can reuse the extension for future bottles.
