The Story of Lindt And Method of Making Lindt Balls
The Lindt balls bulk as we know them today have a long history behind it. The name Lindt comes after Rodolphe Lindt, the son of a Bernese pharmacist. There was a time when chocolate was just as hard as a stone and almost impossible to bite into it. Even the processing of chocolate was extremely difficult. In short, the chocolaty pleasure that we have today of having a piece of chocolate melting on our tongue and we, savoring and relishing the divine taste of chocolate was unknown to mankind. This is where Rodolphe Lindt came in. He was a confectioner. As he was aware of the potential of chocolate and its amazing taste, he wanted to find a way to make chocolate into a confectionery. For this, he bought an old factory that had several antiquated machines. With the whole of the Bernese society mocking him, he remained undeterred. With his experiments failing and resulting into the chocolate forming an odd white layer over the chocolate as the final product, he was exposed to much more mockery by the society. He then analyzed the white coating formed over it. The results showed that it was just a harmless fat layer. With this, he continued experimenting with various cooking recipes for chocolate, but with no avail to a recipe that could actually turn the hard chocolate into an edible delight.
Though, it all changed with a mistake made by him one evening. He left the factory without finishing work and without having switched off all the machines. Whether this was an honest mistake or was he following a hunch is not known to anyone. But when he returned to his factory after a long weekend, the machines had been running and the tank filled with stirring all that time. There is the tank, instead of a burnt-up chocolate mass, there was a shiny brown thick liquid. When he tasted some of it, he became the first man to experience the delight of chocolate melting in the mouth. That is when he realized he finally had made a breakthrough. After that, there was no stopping him. His chocolate company was known as the Lindt chocolate company and its chocolates became famous in the whole world gradually and till date, nobody has yet known the secret recipe of these chocolates. This Lindt chocolate has now become the face of Swiss chocolate.
