A love story thousands of years old
From divine origins to royal conquests
The love affair between chocolate and mankind goes back to the dawn of time. Long before it became the delicacy we know today, cocoa was considered a gift from the gods, a sacred beverage reserved for the elite and rituals of pre-Columbian civilizations. Imagine the Mayans and Aztecs savoring a bitter, spicy cocoa-based beverage during religious ceremonies, to honor their deities or seal alliances. For them, cocoa was synonymous with strength, wisdom and... love. The drink was even said to have aphrodisiac properties, capable of igniting hearts and passions.
When the Spanish conquistadors landed in America in the 16th century, they were fascinated by this mysterious beverage. Christopher Columbus himself brought cocoa beans back to the Spanish court, but it was Hernán Cortés who truly understood the potential of this "food of the gods". Back in Europe, he introduced cocoa and its preparation secrets. Chocolate, transformed into a smooth, sweet drink, soon conquered the royal courts of Europe. In Versailles, at the court of the Sun King, chocolate became the fashionable drink, a symbol of luxury and refinement. It was enjoyed in precious porcelain containers, during sumptuous ceremonies or gallant rendezvous. Chocolate was associated with nobility, pleasure and... courtly love.
Chocolate, a symbol of passion and seduction
Over the centuries, chocolate has come to symbolize passion and seduction. Its melting texture, intense taste and bewitching aromas awaken the senses and create an atmosphere conducive to romance. To offer chocolate is to share a moment of pleasure, complicity and intimacy. It's an invitation to indulge, a subtle message about love and desire.
History is full of anecdotes illustrating the role of chocolate in the game of seduction. In the 18th century, hot chocolate was the drink of choice for literary salons and trysts. Madame de Pompadour, favorite of King Louis XV, was a great lover of chocolate, which she savored for its stimulating and... aphrodisiac virtues. Casanova, the famous seducer, considered chocolate a precious ally in winning the hearts of women.
Even today, chocolate remains an essential traditional gift for Valentine's Day. The gift of a box of chocolates is an expression of affection, admiration and tenderness. It's a simple, elegant gesture that transcends time and culture. It's a beautiful, perfect gesture.
Chocolate, a messenger of emotions
Chocolate flavours: an echo of your feelings
Chocolate is more than just a delicacy. It's a true messenger of emotions, capable of expressing an infinite range of nuances and feelings. Each type of chocolate, with its specific flavors and aromas, carries a particular message.
- Dark chocolates, intense and powerful, with their bitter notes and complex aromas, evoke passion, mystery and commitment. This is the chocolate of fiery love, of intense and lasting relationships.
- Milk chocolate, softer and more comforting, with its creamy taste and milky notes, symbolizes tenderness, complicity and trust. It's the chocolate of tender love affairs, serene and harmonious relationships.
- White chocolate, delicate and refined, with its sweetness and vanilla notes, expresses purity, innocence and gentleness. It's the chocolate of first love, budding feelings and light-hearted relationships.
