A “hot” new holiday trend has arrived in East Tennessee! Hot cocoa bombs came on the scene a couple of years ago and quickly became a popular hashtag on TikTok. They will warm you and satisfy your sweet tooth. Not to mention, they make great gifts!
So, what is a hot cocoa bomb? Simply put, it’s a chocolate sphere filled with cocoa. When you pour hot milk or hot water over the “bomb,” it explodes in your mug making a rich and delicious cup of hot cocoa. Sometimes there are elaborate decorations on the outside of the chocolate sphere and there are extra goodies inside like marshmallows.
Hot cocoa bombs can be found at major retailers like Walmart, Target, Sam’s Club, Costco and more. But Knoxville Moms has put together a list of Knoxville area businesses and entrepreneurs selling hot cocoa bombs so you can buy local this holiday season. If you’re feeling adventurous, there are even kits to make your own chocolate bombs. No matter how you decide to take part in this sweet culinary trend, we hope it warms your heart and spirit!
