This fascinates me since you can buy Lindt in the US at places like Rite-Aid.  :-\\\\

And at Tesco here in the UK. Maybe they'll stop selling in places like that if they're attempting to make themselves purely upmarket. That, my friends, would be a tragedy.

Anyway, here's some chocolatey fun for you. The Lindt Gold Bunny Hunt game!

I have seen it in Boots and other places. I still get from Whittard because I love that shop.  ;D

You'll still be able to find a few bits at supermarkets and such but what I call the cute range and extended range, you will find in more upmarket stores. At the Lindt meeting they said they eventually want to open just  purely Lindt stores in London.  Not sure how far down the line that might be but that is their goal.  I know the stores won't be very big.  Probably about the size of Thorntons.  Lindt has a patent on the way they make their chocolate.  There is a process called "conching". 

I knew that the balls were also called Lindors, I thought it was Lindor Truffles...I have always been confused by that! I never could understand why sometimes their chocolate is called Lindt and sometimes Lindor.  :-[  ???

Lindt is the company.  Lindors/Lindor truffles are the type of chocolate balls they make.  The company in fact is actually called Lindt & Sprungli

To be honest they never actually touched upon this subject.  It might just be a goal they have for Europe at the moment.  So I really dont' know.

There are Lindt stores all around here, most of the better malls around Boston have them, usually a Lindt and a Godiva store. I definitely prefer Lindt.

I used to work at Blockbuster and we had individual Lindors at the check out counter. The Lindt stuff I've seen at the pharmacies are a lot smaller than what are in the Lindt stores. Since there's a Lindt store 20 minutes from where I live, I usually just go to the store. They have a much better selection.
