I was recently approached by Lindt, to talk about their new Lindt HELLO chocolates. Lindt HELLO is a new collection from Lindt of sinfully delicious premium chocolate inspired by classic American treats. Lindt HELLO is all about making connections, so I thought it would be fun to use this opportunity to reconnect with one of my friends and brighten up her day.

But first, say “hello” to the enticing flavors, of the Lindt HELLO collection:

• Caramel Brownie: Discover the irresistible combination of smooth milk chocolate, hazelnut and caramel brownie filling
• Strawberry Cheesecake: Satisfy your cheesecake craving with rich milk chocolate and a light, fluffy strawberry cream cheese filling.
• Crunchy Nougat: Smooth milk chocolate,– now that’s yummy!
• Cookies & Cream: Chocolate, cookies – and a crunch! Savor a chocolaty experience like no other, with chocolate chip cookie pieces and cream filling.

The Lindt HELLO collection can be enjoyed 3 different ways:

• Sticks – The Lindt HELLO sticks are trendy treats designed for chocolate lovers on-the-go. With six tasty squares you can savor one by one or enjoy all at once, the sticks are just the right size for satisfying those afternoon cravings.
• Bars – Lindt HELLO Bars are not your ordinary candy bars. The ten luxuriously filled squares that make up a HELLO bar – each covered in irresistibly smooth premium chocolate – are bite-sized packages of delight for your taste buds.
• Mini-Stick Bags – Taste, share and love! Each bag is filled with bite size Mini Sticks – perfect for sharing with friends or spoiling yourself with the occasional (or daily) chocolate treat.

To help launch the new line of Lindt HELLO, Lindt Chocolate partnered with Ashley Tisdale to co-produce “It Started with HELLO,”a fun, new comedy digital series capturing couples as they make their first connections, and is inspired by the cheeky personalities of the new Lindt HELLO products. You can watch the series on Lindt’s YouTube channel here.

Since I am an old married lady, I wanted to take this opportunity to say HELLO to my friend Amanda. You may remember her, from our trip to Seattle, where we went to her wedding this past May. Her husband is currently deployed and I wanted to say HELLO and cheer her up while she is missing him. This was perfect, since Amanda LOVES chocolate. The cool thing about the new Lindt HELLO line is that you can buy them in stores nationwide, Lindt Chocolate Shops and at Lindt[dot]com. Since she lives in Arizona I can ship them right to her!

I was looking for a photo of just us two and found this one from a few years back when we rushed the field after a Michigan game.

It was so easy to say HELLO to Amanda and brighten her day by sending her some Lindt online. I can’t wait to see what she says when her treat arrives!
