Thomas Heatherwick’s London 2012 Olympic cauldron is lit

 The cauldron was lit on 27 July at the end of the end of the Olympics opening ceremony, which was directed by Danny Boyle. It was lit by seven young athletes, The design of the cauldron had been one of the most closely-guarded secrets of the opening ceremony.

 When the competing delegations arrived in London, they each received a copper petal, inscribed with the name of their country and the words ‘XXX Olympiad London 2012’.

The carried these petals into the stadium during the opening ceremony before laying them down on the cauldron. When all the petals had been laid down, the seven torchbearers each ignited a single tiny flame within one of the copper petals on the ground, triggering the ignition of all 204 petals.
The Cauldron’s long, stainless-steel stems then rose towards each other and converge to form one single flame.
The 16 tonne, 8.5m-high cauldron has now been moved to the south end of the Olympic Stadium, from its ceremony position in the centre of the field of play.

CHOCOLAT FACTORY. Chocolate to lick your fingers or chops?

So good as to lick your chops. Or is it because mustaches are chocolate-made? A real dilemma. But if we are talking about Chocolat Factory, we are referring to both things! Chocolatiers from Barcelona, they produce premium quality chocolate, but with a greate care to form. A design chocolate! It offers tempting proposals of chocolate shaped as mustaches, thimbles, coffee capsules… As the Good Morning Chocolate, a slice of chocolate shaped as a sandwich. Light and perfect for yor morning breakfast. Handy and convenient, funny and witty, it’s the ideal thing to say “good morning” to yourself! Or the Mr. Chocolate lollipop with mustaches, a joyful and perky way to enjoy chocolate, without getting your fingers dirty. But if you love licking your fingers, then Give Me Five it’s the type I suggest to you. Five thimbles in five different chocolate flavours. What a pity to have only two hands!
