Real Hot Chocolate

Cola Cao is Spain’s leading brand chocolate drink!

Cola Cao is a high energy chocolate drink with vitamins and minerals that originated in Spain but is now available to the UK coffee shop market through Cafe Trade.

Cola Cao comes in powder form in individual, portion controlled sachets and is intended to be mixed with milk (but can also be mixed with water or soya milk).

Cola Cao is much thicker than the hot chocolate drinks traditionally found in the UK. It does not dissolve quickly and is served with a tea spoon. A real favourite with children, simply follow the 3 steps:

  1. Select a tall mug / glass
  2. Warm 200ml of milk
  3. Serve the unopened sachet on top of the mug / glass along with a long tea spoon.

Part of the Cola Cao experience for the customer is to open the sachet and mix the contents into the milk themselves (especially children).

This product will help you to retain customers with children – throughout the year.

You will also find a growing following of Coal Cao “lovers” among the adult consumers.

Without doubt, the coffee you serve must be of high quality. This means freshly roasted (not bought from a warehouse where it could have been standing for several weeks), expertly prepared (you need good equipment and well trained staff) and well presented.

Cafe Trade coffee is roasted daily here in the North West and your coffee is roasted to order. Choose from a range of single origin gourmetcoffees (listed below) or our carefully selected espresso blends. Also, Café Trade can reproduce exactly your current coffee blend and brand it with your own label packaging at a price that you might find attractive.

Standing Out From The Crowd

As coffee shop numbers continue to grow it becomes more and more important for you to create an identity. You can do this in a number of ways:

  • Cafe Trade can help you to create a blend of coffee that is unique to you. We could also replicate any other blend that you may have already tried.
  • Your coffee packaging can be branded with your own name and label, a truly personal offer.

Coffee Menu

In addition to your house coffee, why not offer one or two speciality coffees, served in a cafetiere? Or offer small packs of your very own coffee for sale to take away?

Give your customers the opportunity to experience coffee flavours from around the world.

CAFE TRADE offers a simple way to make REAL fruit smoothies that are nutritious, tasty and very popular with consumers.

We supply you with ready-packaged individual sachets of frozen fruit, all pre-measured, chopped and combined into tasty smoothie recipes. All you have to do is blend the fruit with our healthy ProBiYo yoghurt bars (frozen) and fruit juice. Nothing else is added. No powders, no syrups – not even ice.

To ensure the product is of the highest quality, freshly harvested fruit is individually quick frozen (IQF) to lock in the goodness and maximise shelf life (up to 2 years if kept frozen). Once blended, the natural flavours of the fruit are released along with all the vitamins and minerals and the smooth, velvety texture of the frozen yoghurt.

Each sachet portion, blended with juice and half a ProBiYo bar,  creates a 12 ounce smoothie (340 ml).

Offer your customers a larger smoothie (16oz) by adding the whole ProBiYo bar and a little extra juice.

SIX Flavours to Choose From

  • Strawberry Banana Classic (strawberries, banana, ProBiYo, juice)
  • Strawberries Straight Up  (loads of strawberries, ProBiYo, juice)
  • Pineapple Sunset (pineapple, banana, strawberry, ProBiYo, juice)
  • Paradise Island (pineapple, mango, peach, ProBiYo, juice)
  • Blueberry Hill (blueberries, banana, ProBiYo, juice)
  • Razzman (raspberries, mango, ProBiYo, juice)

In 2007 John Taylerson started Malmesbury Syrups from scratch using local spring water and carefully selected ingredients. Produced on a countryside estate on the edge of the Cotswolds, these syrups have been created to offer a truly artisan type product. Using an old fashioned system for pasteurisation, for example, means the ingredients are picked for flavour rather than cost.

Taste the difference? Well, it seems that awards for the flavours confirm that people love the quality.

The Malmesbury Syrups range has been designed with independent coffee shops in mind, especially those looking for the little extra touches that set them apart from the rest. Fashions change and flavours reflect fashions.
“Tastes, flavours, seasons and service are the battle ground that independants can fight on”, says John Taylerson. “Sourcing from this country is also proving a competitive advantage”.

Taylerson’s Malmesbury Syrups are available from CAFÉ TRADE. They are a great way to increase margins on coffee sales. Coffee Shops can get a 100% return on a bottle. A 1 litre bottle will have 120+ shots – at 30p a shot that’s a very definite return and a very small addition to the cost of the customer’s cup of coffee.


Also use for making Frappes, Milkshakes and adding flavour to Hot Chocolate, Porridge and a whole lot more…

Also available – Mulling Syrup. Simply add to wine or cider and heat slowly.
