In a delightful fusion of tradition and taste, Holland America Line has announced an exquisite collaboration with Lindt & Sprüngli (USA), renowned for their LINDOR truffles and premium chocolate. This premium partnership aims to elevate the cruising experience by inviting guests to indulge in luxurious, chocolate-infused moments throughout their journey.
Holland America Line and Lindt, both iconic brands with rich European heritage, are united by a shared passion for creating exceptional and meticulously crafted experiences. This collaboration promises to bring a touch of chocolatey elegance to the high seas, making every cruise even more memorable.
Melissa Mendoza, Vice President of Marketing at Lindt & Sprüngli (USA), expressed her excitement, stating, "Holland America Line's dedication to extraordinary service mirrors the meticulous craftsmanship behind Lindt chocolate, where the fusion of the finest ingredients creates an unparalleled indulgent experience. The partnership between Holland America Line and Lindt presents a remarkable chance for the Lindt LINDOR brand to connect with travellers passionate about cuisine and attract a new generation of LINDOR fans with unforgettable brand moments."
Every journey with Holland America Line is an opportunity to create lasting memories. As night falls on Gala Night, guests can retreat to their cabins and enjoy the "Sweet Dreams" turndown service, featuring the irresistibly smooth Lindt LINDOR milk chocolate truffles or Sea Salt milk chocolate truffles. This special touch is available once per cruise, adding a layer of luxury to the guest experience.
Guests can further indulge in Lindt chocolate desserts, including the signature tulip-shaped Lindt chocolate mousse cake. Tulips, an enduring Dutch symbol, reflect Holland America Line's heritage. This elegant dessert is already featured aboard the Rotterdam during the Dutch Day dinner and will be available fleetwide from August 2024.
Starting in summer 2024, guests will also be treated to a Lindt Sundae, featuring vanilla ice cream topped with a custom-made Lindt chocolate sauce, and Lindt chocolate tulips, available one night per cruise on the Dutch Day dinner menu.
In July 2024, just in time for World Chocolate Day, Holland America Line will introduce a unique Lindt Flourless Chocolate Cake, created in partnership with Lindt's Master Chocolatier, Ann Czaja. This indulgent dessert will be featured on the Dining Room menu for cruises over seven days and during the new "Cake Me Away" program. This dessert extravaganza will showcase more than 22 tantalising five-layer cakes in 16 decadent flavours.
Michael Stendebach, Vice President of Food, Beverage, and Rooms Division for Holland America Line, shared his enthusiasm for the collaboration: "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. We hope our guests take the opportunity to indulge in all the special moments this partnership offers."
