Since 1845 Lindt has been dedicated to producing the world"s finest chocolates. It all started in a small pastry shop on Marktgasse in Zurich"s old town. Confectioner David Sprüngli-Schwarz and his young son Rudolf dared to do something new so they embarked on a journey discovering the ideal processes to make exquisite chocolate. In 1859 father and son Sprüngli opened a second, large pastry shop on Paradeplatz in Zurich. Today sees Lindt supplying chocolates and pralines all over the world and is one of the most recognised brands for those who enjoy a spot of refinement and luxury.
