Hot drinks and melted chocolate, from one little flame
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to put a real candle in it?
Is it safe to put a real candle in it?
Yes. The cutout in the base is designed for an open flame and the mug is heat-resistant ceramic. A standard tea light slides straight in and burns safely underneath your drink.
Can it really melt chocolate?
Can it really melt chocolate?
Yes. The flame gives off gentle, even heat, so chocolate melts smoothly without seizing or burning. It works just as well for butter, caramel, cheese and marshmallows.
Where does the dipping stick go?
Where does the dipping stick go?
Into a slot moulded into the handle. The ceramic stick sits upright and stays with the mug, so it never ends up dripping on your table.
How do I clean it?
How do I clean it?
Let the mug cool down completely, then wash it by hand with warm soapy water. The glazed surface wipes clean easily, including any melted chocolate left in the cup.
Tired of cold coffee? ☕
You get distracted, and by the time you come back the last half of the cup is cold. Melt Cup keeps your drink warm with a single tea light underneath, so you finish it at your own pace instead of reheating it or pouring it away.
Try it for 30 days
You have 30 days to send it back, and we refund you — no questions asked.
Melting chocolate shouldn't mean a dirty saucepan 🍫
A double boiler, a stove to watch, and more washing up afterwards — all for a few squares of chocolate. Melt Cup turns the mug itself into the melting pot, so you light the candle, drop the chocolate in, and dip.
