Holland America Line (HAL) has announced a new collaboration with Lindt & Sprungli (USA), bringing premium chocolate experiences to passengers onboard its global fleet.
Starting in summer 2024, HAL will introduce several Lindt chocolate-themed offerings. Among them will be a ”Sweet Dreams" turndown service featuring Lindt Lindor milk chocolate truffles or Sea Salt milk chocolate truffles once per cruise.
A signature tulip-shaped Lindt chocolate mousse cake, which is currently available on Rotterdam's Dutch Day dinner menu, will expand fleetwide by August 2024. Also on the Dutch Day dinner menu will be a Lindt Sundae with vanilla ice cream and custom-made Lindt chocolate sauce, to be served one night, per cruise, in the Dining Room.
Plus, a unique Lindt Flourless Chocolate Cake, created in collaboration with Lindt's master chocolatier Ann Czaja, will debut in July 2024. This cake will be available on the Dining Room menu for cruises over seven days and featured in the new “Cake Me Away” dessert program.
"The partnership between Holland America Line and Lindt presents a remarkable chance for the Lindt Lindor brand to connect with travelers passionate about cuisine and attract a new generation of Lindor fans with unforgettable brand moments," said Melissa Mendoza, vice president of marketing at Lindt & Sprungli (USA).
"We're thrilled to align ourselves with Lindt, a globally beloved brand and one of the world's leading chocolatiers, to launch an initiative that represents our deep connection to Europe and elevates the culinary experience on board, added Michael Stendebach, vice president of food, beverage and rooms division for Holland America Line.
