What does Dove really mean?

Let’s take a look at the story here first. The founder’s story dove-do you love me. In the spring of 1919, the Luxembourg royal family welcomed Princess Charlotte to the throne. At the same time, she married Prince Felix, a descendant of the Bourbon family.

Leon, an assistant cook in the royal family's kitchen, was very busy. He spent all day cleaning tableware and plates, and his hands suffered many cuts.

When he was cleaning the wound with salt water, a girl came over and said, "This must hurt, right?" This girl was Princess Bazaar who later influenced Leon's life.

The two young people met in this way. Leon, who had never been loved by anyone, met the kind-hearted Bazaar.

Because Bazaar is only a distant relative of Prince Felix, her status in the royal family is very low, and she cannot taste the rare delicacy - ice cream.

So Leon would sneak into the kitchen every night to make ice cream for Bazaar. The two of them would always taste the ice cream while talking about the past.

Bazaar also taught Leon English.

The sweetness of first love lingered in the hearts of even the young people. However, in that conservative era where superiority and inferiority were clearly distinguished, due to their special status and situation, none of them expressed their love, but silently buried this feeling in their hearts.

From the bottom of my heart.

At the beginning of the 20th century, Luxembourg and Belgium entered into an alliance in order to strengthen Luxembourg's position throughout Europe.

In order to consolidate the alliance, royal marriage became the best way, and the chosen one was Princess Bazaar.

For several days, Leon couldn't see Bazaar, and he was very anxious.

Finally, a month later, Basha appeared at the dinner table. However, she had lost a lot of weight and looked very haggard.

When Leon was preparing dessert, he wrote a few English letters DOVE in hot chocolate on Bazaar's ice cream, which is the abbreviation of "DOYOULOVEME".

He believed that Bazaar would be able to guess what he was thinking.

However, Bazaar was in a daze for a long time, until the hot chocolate melted.

Basha got married a few days later.

A year later, unable to bear the torment of thoughts, Leon left the royal kitchen and quietly came to a high-end restaurant in the United States with the pain in his heart.

The boss here appreciated him very much and promised his daughter to Leon.

The passage of time, family peace, stable career, and the birth of his son have not erased the trauma in Leon's heart.

His thoughts did not escape his wife's eyes. She burst into anger and left sadly.

Since then, Leon has been single with his son and running his candy shop.

In 1946, Leon's son was chasing an ice cream truck, and the door of his memory was suddenly opened.

Leon has never made ice cream since Bazaar left.

This time Leon decided to continue the research he had not completed for Bazaar in the past. After several months of careful development, an ice cream rich in cream and wrapped in fragrant chocolate came out and was engraved with four letters.

The son innocently asked Leon what DOVE meant.

Leon said softly, this is the name of the ice cream.

Dove ice cream has been well received since its launch.

At this time, Leon received a letter from Luxembourg. The letter was written to him by a partner who also worked in the royal kitchen. In the letter, he learned that Princess Bazaar had sent someone back to the country to inquire about him, hoping that he could

Went to visit her, only to learn that he had gone to the United States.

Due to the impact of World War II, when this letter reached Leon, it was already a full year and three days late.

Leon finally found Bazaar after all the hard work.

Basha and Leon were already old at this time. Bazaar lay weakly on the bed, tears falling uncontrollably on her pale arms.

Bazaar stretched out her hand and caressed Leon's forehead, calling Leon's name in a weak and almost inaudible voice.

Bazaar recalled Luxembourg at that time. She loved Leon very much and once refused marriage with a hunger strike. She was detained for a month. She knew very well that she could never escape the fate of marriage, not to mention that Leon never said he loved her.

Not even any promises.

In that era, a woman had to pay a heavy price for breaking up with her family.

In the end, she could only compromise with her fate, but on the condition that she hoped to return to the palace for afternoon tea before leaving Luxembourg, because she wanted to say her final farewell to Leon there.

She ate the chocolate ice cream he sent but didn't see the melted letters.

Hearing this, Leon burst into tears, and the past misunderstanding finally had an answer.

But it was too late. Three days later, Basha passed away.

Leon heard from the servants that since Bazaar married, he had been depressed all day long, which led to illness. After learning that he left Luxembourg and got married in the United States, he became ill.

Leon was infinitely sad. If the words on the ice cream had not melted at that time, and if Bazaar understood his feelings, then she would definitely change her mind and elope with him.

If those words never melt, he won't lose his last chance.

Leon decided to create a solid form of chocolate that would last longer.

After painstaking research, the mellow and unique Dove chocolate was finally successfully developed. Each piece of chocolate is firmly engraved with DOVE. Leon commemorates the love he and Bazaar missed. Although it is bitter but sweet, sad and touching,

It tastes like Dove chocolate.

When lovers send Dove, it means sending out the soft question of love: DOYOULOVEME?

That is also the founder's reminder to lovers in the world that if you love her, please let your lover know it in time, and remember to love deeply and never give up.
