Happy Chocolate Day! I am celebrating by not having chocolate because there is none in the house (the TRAGEDY!!!). So instead I will have virtual chocolate by trying to match Indian movie stars with their ideal chocolate treat.
Madhuri-Chocolate Mousse. Light frothy fun decadent irrisistable.
Shahrukh-Dark Chocolate Espresso Beans. Addictive, overwhelming, sweet with a bitterness at the heart.
Anushka Sharma-Dove Bar Chocolates. Pleasant, easy, sweet, and secretly feminist.
Ranveer Singh-Chili Chocolate Cake. Complex, deep, rich, but with so much spice on top he can be hard to take.
Sonam Kapoor-Chocolate Petit Fours. Elegant, classy, perfectly turned out, best in a group.
Madhavan-Chocolate turtle. Salted pecans, caramel, covered in dark chocolate. Sweet, solid, and filling.
Alia Bhatt-Chocolate covered strawberry. Simple, sweet, fresh, no preparation but surprisingly good.
Sid M-Snickers bar. He’s not that sophisticated, he doesn’t have the best raw ingredients, but he is tasty and always there and you can’t help liking him.
Deepika Padukone-Chocolate cupcake. You can’t help liking them, and they are surprisingly versatile.
Prithviraj S-Pure Dark Chocolate Bar. Strong, perfect, unbreakable.
Okay, your turn! Disagree with my choices, or add in your own (Aamir? Salman? Kareena? Saif? Sara Ali Khan?)

No, Twix is too sweet for Kareena. She is more like this odd chocolate with salt – at first you like it and then think “there is something odd, I won’t buy it again”

I like salt chocolate! But then, I also like Kareena, so your point stands.

While searching for salt chocolate photo I found something absolutely perfect for Maddy – Milk Chocolate Gummi Bears. I’ve never eaten it nor seen it in shops here, but isn’t it perfect? He is an ultimate chocolate boy and also a teddy bear. Also the site says: “These lil’ guys are as fun to eat as they are to look at” I bet!

Well SOMEONE has to be chocolate lava cake! We just need to figure out who. Bitter and crusty on the outside, hot and sweet and wet on the inside. I feel like that should be a Silver Fox of some variety, but I don’t know who.
chocolate chip cookies is definitely Aamir. Tiny, tasty, everyone likes them even people who don’t usually eat desserts.
Varun is brownies. Friendly, basic, pleasant, hardworking.
Hrithik is……diet chocolate?

This is a really good analogy. I know I am supposed to like dark chocolate, everyone I know loves dark chocolate, and yet I only like it covering a sweet raspberry creme or with tons of sugar added. It isn’t my favorite. And yet, I am very fond of chocolate covered coffee beans. And I really like spicy chocolate, every now and then. Substitute the actors for the chocolate and my feelings are exactly the same.
