Sinful Temptation

When you think Lindt, you generally think of a sinful temptation, your mouth salivating as you start to carefully unwrap your treat. When I eat Lindt, I often think Of Charlie and the chocolate factory, I have this child's excitement that when I pull away the silver wrapping I'm going to find a golden ticket to experience the world of chocolate. Its not far off, as Lindt do scrumptious classes anyways, you can go to a class and learn all sorts of things. You could learn all about chocolate, the history, the marketing, packaging, why its all done the way it is. You could also go to a dessert class and find yourself preparing the delicate, seductive mini delights for a dinner party to impress those friends who aren't convinced about your casserole.

As a partner to a Lindt chocolatier I can quiet honestly say Lindt is by far the best chocolate I have tasted. Its not only about the actual chocolate but with what you can use it for. Choc chip cookies, yum, and then a warm, sweet beverage to quench the thirst a Hot chocolate. Oh sweet temptation!! In the old Cape Quarter, the restaurant Andiamo serves world class pizza's, and what is better than ending off your afternoon with a Lindt Hot Chocolate and a cookie.

Often we have a birthday, or a celebration of sorts and we are stomped with a gift. I have never been more grateful because any occasion Kyle and myself are the ''Lindt couple'' and I tell you our present is appreciated more than a tea set, or an expensive sweater. Peoples faces light up like no other when you give them a Lindt bar, or a macaroon. Another idea would be to take your wife, mother, significant other, or even your child to a Lindt class. No better way to bond than to spend it learning, creating and eating your magnificent creation.

I know Lindt may be pricey for some, but Lindt make sure to cater for everyone. They often have really good specials. It wont break the bank, but it may break the diet you are on. I have a guy at work that swears by Lindt and I always get messages asking what time they close, or open or leave.. blah blah.. I think if he could have a tab there he would. Its no sin to love Lindt, its smart to love a well known chocolate that brings people together.

I say brings people together because I am sure you could just about get yourself out of any situation with a Lindt chocolate. ''I don't have my licence on me, however I have a divine chocolate for you?'' please do not try that, I'm just saying Lindt is something that I have seen work like no other. I have used it on my mother before, if she is angry or upset with me, I whip out the Lindt, make her a cup pf tea and all is forgotten about with that first mouth watering, heavenly bite.

I myself am not the biggest chocolate fan, but when I lie in bed waiting for something sweet, and sensational, I just stick my hand into my bedside draw open a mini Lindor ball, and suddenly I could conquer anything. What I love the most is the fact that there are so many flavours, if one does not suit you, there is another flavour waiting for you. Be it Salt, Chili, Tirimisu (my favourite) or Wasabi. A well catered chocolate selection for everyone. The white mousse is also a winner, and the milk chocolate mousse. OK that's enough now, I am craving a bit of sweet temptation now.. I have to admit I have been converted.

I would recommend looking at the classes, and heading to the old Cape Quarter for a tasty temptation, if heaven had chocolate waterfalls, I imagine it would be filled with Lindt.

Be kind, and eat chocolate,
