Lindt Chocoladen Seiten

Another thing that Lindt has in Germany that I don't see in Canada, is their own free magazine, all in German, called Chocoladen Seiten (or Chocolate Pages - though it should be Schokoladen; I would say it was a play on words, Choco + Laden=Chocolate Store(s)). The tagline is "The Lindt Magazine for Afficianados". There are articles and recipes, all featuring Lindt products, both new and old. This current one featured Easter. There are articles on Easter baskets, Egg/Gift Hunting, one on Roger Federer's love of Lindt chocolate with a picture of him holding a very large Lindor Milk, an article about Mexico and its cacao (which would mean they use cacao beans from there),recipes like Easter Chocolate Cake with Carrot Sponge Cake and Fruit Tartlets (with Mousse) and Black Forest Crumble (all using Lindt chocolate). The articles are obviously market-oriented and product-driven, but interesting, a little. Now, if we could only get an English version.

Edible Toronto

The idea of a magazine that details local foods in various regions I find very intriguing, the two magazines that I have got so far from this regional quarterly (this one's tagline is "Celebrating the Abundance of Local Foods in Golden Horseshoe). There are lots of different regional Edible magazines, each one is catered to showcasing foods, farmer's markets, recipes, local foods, issues and ideas in that area. I've found it a valuable resource and an interesting read. You can find articles from back issues, culinary events, recipes too, and subscriptions at their website Edible Toronto, though you can find it for free at various establishments.
