	Godiva (chocolatier) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Godiva is a chocolate manufacturer, founded in 1926 in Brussels, Belgium and introduced in the United States in 1966.
		The majority of Godiva chocolates sold in the US are also produced in the US, using many of the same master Belgian recipes, ingredients and processing methods as in the Brussels plant.
		Godiva Chocolates are made from fine chocolate and high quality ingredients and, consequently, are relatively expensive.

		Not satisfied with the Mesoamerican method of foaming their chocolate by pouring it from one cup into another, they introduced the molinillo, a wooden whisk-like tool that is twirled between the palms of the hands to mix the chocolate and create a foam.

		Godiva Chocolatier may have been the first chocolate company to challenge Hershey's and Nestlé's supremacy in America by introducing high-end, expensive chocolate into the market.

	Godiva Chocolate in general - Review - Hey, Lady - Time to Get Off your High Horse!
		Godiva chocolates are some of the most expensive on the market today, and I'm afraid that the point of that famous naked ride has totally escaped the modern day descendants of their founder Joseph Draps, as I'm afraid no amount of reduction in taxes could make these chocolates affordable to serfs.
		Godiva has also been careful not to over sweeten their white "chocolate" so that you might actually find the buttery undertone to be slightly salty on your pallette after you swallow.
		Since milk chocolates have cocoa solids in addition to the cocoa butter (as opposed to the white stuff), the predominant flavour of a good milk chocolate should still be these two ingredients, and not the milk powder.

	Masters of Chocolate Look Abroad and See Something Even Richer - New York Times
		Boey is part of a new crop of Belgian chocolate makers that has sprung up after many of the big names were swallowed decades ago by multinational food giants.
		Five years ago, the Belgian chocolate maker Jean Galler collaborated in opening a restaurant in southern Namur where the main courses are flavored with chocolate.
		For all these chocolate makers, the temptation to expand to the United States is rooted in the belief that the tastes of the world's most lucrative market have gone beyond Hershey's and are appreciative of a more sophisticated product.

		Godiva is the only major gourmet chocolatier engaging in brand advertising at the national level, and it is apparent that, at least in that regard, it is very successful.
		Godiva markets itself as a prestige chocolatier, but its price point ($34/lb in its NYC boutiques) and its presence in mass-market locations such as Barnes and Noble peg it squarely in the gourmet class.
		In addition to the ballotin I purchased at Balducci’s, I went to the Godiva boutique in Grand Central Station where I asked one of the counter staff if the truffles in the case were the same as the truffles in the ballotins.

		There's a great deal of "chocolate" in the market that has as little as 20% cacao product in it; the real chocolatey base may be blended with fats, emulsifiers, vanilla, powdered milk, etc. The chocolate connoisseur can tell when he or she is not getting enough of the real thing.
		And, in the hands of a great chocolate maker, it will be perfectly blended with the chocolate - flavor-wise, and texture-wise - so that the chocolate itself remains the star, it's chocolateness actually piqued and emphasized by the presence of another flavor.
