The London side cut through their opponents' defence at will in the first half at the Reebok Stadium, with Lampard and Daniel Sturridge - who netted eight times in 12 matches during a loan spell with Wanderers last season - both scoring.
Sturridge headed the visitors in front in the second minute, teed up Lampard in the 15th and Chelsea then raced into a 4-0 lead with less than half an hour of the contest gone, two errors in quick succession by home goalkeeper Adam Bogdan allowing the Blues pair another goal each.
Dedryck Boyata pulled one back for Bolton a minute into the second half, but it counted for little as Lampard completed his treble just before the hour mark to wrap up a thumping win.
Andre Villas-Boas - appointed as Chelsea manager in the summer - said afterwards that he thought the result, the biggest of his tenure so far, was the kind his team's attacking play has warranted for some time. - http://www.premierleague.com
