One of my dear friends wrote, chocolates are keys to her heart. Even I feel so for myself. Chocolate is an all time favourite gift, which energizes you, keeps you happy and makes your mood sweeter than ever. They can be the best gift for anyone. However, people are more calorie conscious these days but rarely they could say ’’no’’ to chocolates. They are yummy, tasty, delicious and nice to give and receive.
I was basically fond of ’’Dairy Milk’’ till last Sunday afternoon. The afternoon has changed my mind. How? Let me share the secret with you.
It was a nice Sunday afternoon with soothing breeze all over. I went to meet a dear friend who came down to Kolkata for the first time. Sunday, being the only day for relaxation, is always very precious for me. I met my friend and got the gift he brought with him. Firstly, I didn?t see what it was but guessed that it must be a chocolate.
After the grand ’’chito-chat’’ I came back home and opened the packet. Wow...it was the first time I got this one, ’’Lindt Milk Raisin Nut’’. The blue-white combination pack with golden lining impressed me a lot but I was not sure how it would taste!
’’Lindt Swiss Classic’’ was written at the top and then there was a picture which contains a snow covered mountain, milk, raisin and nut. The mountain is so significant! It made me feel that I?ve the pure Swiss chocolate in my hand. The pot was filled with white creamy milk and the almonds were enriching the effect. As an ardent chocolate lover, I could not wait much and opened it. I broke a piece and put it into my mouth, ohh God! It was so lovely. I kept it there for some more time and let it melt. The sweet taste of milk complemented the pieces of raisins and nuts. It was splendid. The best thing was, there were pieces of raisins and nuts, which made it more delicious for me.
It felt my empty stomach and made me satisfied. It is full of chocolate and you need not accuse the manufacturer for not putting much effort while making.
By the next few minutes, I finished it off. It was certainly not an easy task to share this excellent piece of chocolate with my parents and sis. Though as I loved that, it was obvious for me to share with them, too. The taste was superb and it lasted for long. Slowly as it was melting in my mouth, I could feel myself at cloud 9.
