Basis: the barcode 0 63209 09069 2 is printed beside the legal block "Blended and packed exclusively for The TDL Group Corp., Toronto, Ontario" on this pack, and the same barcode was already in use in 2008 (^archive-2008), six years before Restaurant Brands International was formed. No registry names the registrant; Verified by GS1 answers HTTP 403. Corrects the earlier row, which targeted company/restaurant-brands-international and said the prefix stood in that stub's gs1_prefixes; it never did. | | |

The current label comes from the maker's TimShop photos and the 2017 label from Open Food Facts photos, corroborated by USDA; market evidence is TimShop and Amazon.com. Review 2026-09-14 (review-952c00): the gs1_prefix_owner row was retargeted from company/restaurant-brands-international to company/the-tdl-group-corp, which now carries prefix 0063209 as gs1_prefixes_inferred; the TimShop record (SKU 10017558, CAD 6.99, barcode field empty), the maker's back-label photo and the archived 2008 Barcodepedia capture were refetched and still support what the entry says. | |

| 180 | 181 | Tim Hortons Hot Chocolate is an instant hot chocolate mix in a 500 g canister. It is sold under the brand of the Canadian coffee chain Tim Hortons, a subsidiary of Restaurant Brands International since December 2014.[^wikipedia] The current red English/French label says the mix is prepared in Canada and is blended and packed exclusively for The TDL Group Corp. of Toronto. It lists sugars, modified milk ingredients and cocoa first and gives 190 Calories per 3 tablespoons (48 g).[^label-2025] The chain sells the canister in its own online shop,[^timshop] and Amazon.com lists it under this UPC.[^amazon-us] | |
| 181 | 182 | ||
| 182 | 183 | An earlier brown canister, photographed in 2017, used hydrogenated coconut oil and gave 140 Calories per 2 tablespoons (35 g).[^off-2017] The USDA Branded Foods record from 2022 repeats that ingredient statement.[^usda] The barcode already had a 500 g entry on the original Barcodepedia in 2008.[^archive-2008] | |

| brown-2017 | nutrition | schema_gap | The 2017 panel gives vitamin A 0 %, vitamin C 0 %, calcium 2 % and iron 8 % only as % Daily Value, with no amounts, so no values are recorded. | ^off-2017 |
| label-2025 | relationships | unknown | The trademark line ("Tim Hortons is a registered trademark of Tim H…") runs off the edge of the maker's photo; the trademark holder is not recorded. | ^label-2025 |
| red-2024 | ingredients | unknown | No back-label photo exists for the 2024 red front, so it cannot be placed between the 2017 and current recipes. | ^off-2024 |
| | identity | disputed | The USDA Branded Foods record gives the brand owner as "Kidde-Fenwal, Inc.", a fire-protection company. This conflicts with the printed TDL Group line and is treated as an error in that record; not used. | ^usda |
| | markets | not_researched | Open Food Facts countries_tags lists France and Spain (a contributor claim). No retailer or pack evidence for either was found, so neither is listed. | ^off |
| | markets | unknown | Canadian grocery listings found by web search (Food Basics, Save-On-Foods, Real Canadian Superstore) refused the server fetch (HTTP 403), so no chain price is recorded. | |

## About <!--about-->
Tim Hortons Hot Chocolate is an instant hot chocolate mix in a 500 g canister. It is sold under the brand of the Canadian coffee chain Tim Hortons, a subsidiary of Restaurant Brands International since December 2014.[^wikipedia] The current red English/French label says the mix is prepared in Canada and is blended and packed exclusively for The TDL Group Corp. of Toronto. It lists sugars, modified milk ingredients and cocoa first and gives 190 Calories per 3 tablespoons (48 g).[^label-2025] The chain sells the canister in its own online shop,[^timshop] and Amazon.com lists it under this UPC.[^amazon-us]
An earlier brown canister, photographed in 2017, used hydrogenated coconut oil and gave 140 Calories per 2 tablespoons (35 g).[^off-2017] The USDA Branded Foods record from 2022 repeats that ingredient statement.[^usda] The barcode already had a 500 g entry on the original Barcodepedia in 2008.[^archive-2008]
