The Choice of Chocolate Connoisseurs December 24, 2006

These chocolate are named after Leonidas Kestekidis, who definitely knew how to create chocolates for the true chocolate connoisseur. When he moved back to Belgium he not only married his true love, he created chocolates the world now adores. When you taste these chocolates, your taste buds will also finally know true chocolate happiness. Whether you try one of these with a cup of coffee or tea or enjoy one as a daily indulgence, these will impress.
Each chocolate has a unique design and after you sample the variety of chocolates, specific flavors will stand out as favorites.
Here are my favorite creamy fillings (ganache and buttercream) which come in dark, white and milk chocolate depending on the selection:
Antoinette - A smooth Brandy flavored ganache
Lingoit Lait - Absolutely delicious vanilla flavored fresh butter cream filling. Time definitely stopped while tasting this chocolate.
For ever - If you love coffee this may be one of the most delicious milk or dark chocolate chocolates ever made as it is filled with a special coffee cream that has hints of caramel. I will be ordering an entire box of these sometime in the future.
Merveilleux - Milk or dark chocolate filled with coffee ganache.
Europe - Dark or milk chocolate filled with rum filling.
Ganache - Milk or dark chocolate with pure ganache.
Tosca - Milk chocolate with a special ganache.
Antoinette - Delicate caramel hints in the milk chocolate coating mingle nicely with the vanilla filling.
Eve - Milk chocolate and banana filling.
Alexandre le grand - A milk or dark chocolate with caramel cream.
Also Recommended:
If you wish to also try the Napolitains, I'd suggest the 1 pound sampler Ballotin with six varieties. You may also want to look for the new Palet d'Or. A deeply delicious and strong bitter chocolate filled with ganache. The center is made with butter, cream and chocolate and the outer coating is a masterpiece with gold decorations.
Leonidas now has over 1700 stores and sales locations worldwide and they offer over 80 varieties of fresh chocolates. The chocolates are air freighted weekly from Brussels so you will always find the quality to be superior.
My chocolates arrived fast and were as fresh as if I had purchased them in Belgium. I can say this because I first tasted them in Belgium. They were carefully packaged in the famous gold boxes with signature/seasonal wrapping and a ribbon. The boxes were then placed in protective Styrofoam containers to protect the chocolates during shipping. The expedited shipping is recommended from May to early September.
If you want to introduce your friends and family to
the Leonidas Chocolates, this a perfect way to order
them and then give them out during the holidays.
