Geometry in Hot Chocolate
There’s nothing even a tiny bit geometric in an unctous dark and temptingly tasty Spanish hot chocolate. Luckily the bar where we had one yesterday was able to deliver.

I’ve not tried a Spanish hot chocolate which needs rectifying.

It absolutely does. Not everwhere sells it, but it’s worth hunting down.

Spanish hot chocolate isn’t even a liquid in my opinion! I wish my stomach could cope with it, because it smells delicious, but, alas, no can do.

That’s a shame. It’s – rightly – dispensed in small cups, but I can’t resist the stuff.

The photo of the hot chocolate also contains many of the simple geometric objects that the Greeks studied: the table seems to be a rectangle, like the bill under the cup, the rim of the plate is circular, the indentation in it is a concentric circle, the cup is shaped like the frustum of a cone, actually a hollow cone, closed off on the side closer to the tip by a plane. In terms of 18th century developments in geometry, the cup is similar to doughnuts (it has one hole, the one into which you fit a finger to lift it), and the plate and spoon to spheres (they have no holes). In terms of 20th century developments in geometry, the froth in the chocolate would be a real life example of a fractal. Your first photo is full of wonderful and rich geometry. If I’d learnt more about geometry than what popular science articles teach, I might have been able to see more.

An excellent bar, but I am not sure about the chocolate having read the comments. A bit rich?

It IS rich. But SO good. A reason to come to Spain, all on its own.

Ah, proper hot chocolate (rather like the Italians do, from the looks of it?), not the pale milky imitation we make here! It looks wonderful 😀 And I reckon there IS some geometry in that shot too, ellipses and circles, for instance.

Yes, it’s just like Italian hot chocolate – which used to be sold on Waterloo Station to appreciative crowds. What happened to that? Fair point about the geometry.
