The other day I read a
quote....'diamonds are not a girl’s best friend but chocolates are' Yes, so
true for many of us and specially me! Chocolate has always been my passion. A passion that
eventually led to the creation of Handmade Chocolates from Rita's Kitchen.
My earliest memories of
chocolate are of one that my father used to buy for me from Connaught Place. It
was a milk chocolate in the shape of a fish and it fascinated me. The chocolate
was glossy and the detailed scales of the fish created a beautiful pattern that
mesmerized me. I would hold it in my hands and admire it until it would start
to melt in my hands and then I would take a bite and savor the silk on my
tongue.
When I was twelve we
went to Switzerland and I was totally fascinated by the small pieces of
chocolates covered beautifully in wrappers depicting the awesome tourist spots
in Switzerland. In India, we did not have such luxuries at that time. The
variety of chocolates available was limited to Cadbury Dairy Milk till as late
as the early 90s when finally Nestle entered the chocolate market in India.
For me chocolate is an
integral part of my life. Its about love and passion, it’s to be shared with friends
and family, no celebration is complete without chocolate, and when I am down
and out chocolate is what warms me up and gives me the energy to face the
realities of life. So after many years working in offices doing the normal 9-6, I finally decided it was time to realise my dream of becoming a chocolatier.
Chocolates from Rita’s Kitchen was born thanks to a friends' encouragement. The chocolates in Rita’s Kitchen are prepared with great care
using only the freshest ingredients. Our
chocolates are bold and sensuous and ONLY for discerning adults. See the
ticker for information on our flavors. More flavors coming soon.
This blog was started so
that I could share my passion with all of you. I know there are enough blogs on
chocolate so how will this be different. Well find out for yourself….look out for my ‘Chocolate Party’ (a party with a difference) that you can plan for your friends and for my ‘Killer chocolate cocktail recipes’ that will transport you into a
euphoric state
See you soon!
