A few nights ago I saw on TV a film about Casanova and I must say that I was quite intrigued ... I decided to deepen my knowledge of the character in question and, wandering here and there Web I found the following article. I decided not to mention all of Casanova as a fan. Also because a dreary biography can be found everywhere. Some people prefer to disclose that interest me the details, intriguing aspects. "The charming seducer Giacomo Casanova was not only a great lover of beautiful women but also chocolate He confessed:" To cultivate the pleasures of the senses has been all my life, my main occupation, and I've never had another more important. Feeling born the opposite sex, I
always loved and I made love to the extent possible. I also very much loved good food and with all the things that excite curiosity ... ("Story of My Life"). In Venice in the eighteenth century the passion for chocolate was common in all social classes who could afford it and did not renounce the pleasure of enjoying a hot cup in the morning to reconcile with the living and secure energy for the day. Who had no one to prepare it at home on his way to the coffee shop, reminds us that not only the great Goldoni in his plays there often talk about chocolate, but it was also a great admirer, every morning she went to the Café to sip the fragrant drink Abundance, where he loved to dip pieces of sponge cakes and 
Spain. Casanova was always traveling with a whisk and a rich supply of chocolate bars that grated personally care. Then dissolved in water or milk and mix the powder obtained all long to get a drink consistent with a crown of light, sweet foam. In the rites of courtship had a special place for him are gifts of chocolate that was delivered to the ladies who wanted to seduce, convinced of the aphrodisiac of cocoa. His friends and his lovers also know that follow this passion with generous gifts and keep the food of the gods. Casanova assured that even the best champagne was on par with the heady feeling of chocolate, the ultimate elixir for more: he had the power of his love and gave uninhibited moments heavenly. Nothing better before and after the labors of love. From time to time organized the ambiguous, inviting friends 
more expensive and a lot of beautiful little ladies from the costumes not just punished. He was famously Ambigu organized in the middle of the night in Cologne: oysters in abundance, Rhine wine, wine of Cyprus and Alicante, Madeira and Champagne. And for dessert truffles blacks and Maraschino. Casanova bulldozing over what happened next, a knight of honor only to remember the cries of pleasure for women. Are commercially Baci di Casanova, dark chocolate with a chocolate heart in 
in which the taste of cocoa blends the spicy flavor of chili and Casanova pralines, filled with puffed rice, to allude to joy that can give . One last question, without leaving the topic of seduction: Gabriele D'Annunzio, a great lover, before any sexual encounter, you saziava dark chocolate because it was convinced of its aphrodisiac powers, as he was convinced that the emperor Montezuma consumed up to fifty cups a day to meet the women of his harem busy.
