I use cocoa powder, a milk sub, and a sweetener to make my hot chocolate as well. I don't know about UK brands (though I believe cadbury's is a "will clearly mark on the label" company), but it's usually safe. try calling the company today to double check.

Don't think that Cadbury's is okay.

What about Green and Blacks Organic Open Original Shared Link

Can you get Nestle's? I use a milk substitute (Vance's), sugar and Nestle's Pure Cocoa Powder.

What about Fry's? That's gluten-free. Not sure if it's available in the UK, though.

Is Almond Breeze available in the UK? If so, it's delicious heated up with a few drops of peppermint extract in it.

Good idea with the peppermint. I should try that sometime in my chocolate Silk. I don't know if they have that in the UK either--but Silk's chocolate soy milk is delicious--says cf/gluten-free right on container too.

It turns out that some cans of Fry's Cocoa may have traces of wheat. There is (or has been) more than one facility that produces this, and at least one of them may have issues of cross-contamination. (I just posted a new topic about this entitled 'Fry's Cocoa' - Jan 9, 2009).

      Yaya, from the JAMA study you refer to: "Taking 60,000 international units (IU) a day of vitamin D for several months has been shown to cause toxicity." No one on this forum is recommending taking anywhere near that amount. We're talking about 5-10,000IU daily.

      https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2748796 If read carefully, this study @Yaya refers to was done on healthy people.   "Meaning  Among healthy adults, supplementation with higher doses of vitamin D did not result in improved bone health; further research would be needed to determine whether it is harmful." "...311 community-dwelling healthy adults without osteoporosis, aged 55 to 70 years, with baseline levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) of 30 to 125 nmol/L."   High dose Vitamin D doesn't have substantial benefits if your Vitamin D level is already normal. High dose Vitamin D is used to restore severely deficient Vitamin D levels to normal levels.  "...high-dose vitamin D therapy, as a useful tool to rapidly replete vitamin D status, may support immune function in the context of an acute or chronic infection" ...and... "Therefore, in the context of inflammation and conditions where anemia is prevalent, including chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and critical illness, high-dose vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in rapidly repleting and maintaining 25(OH)D concentrations and may serve as a complement to other treatment regimens to improve anemia." "Among those who had insufficient 25(OH)D (<75nmol/L) at baseline, the High Dose group improved significantly and to a comparatively greater degree on the PRM." These quotes are from the articles I posted earlier.
