Intimate candlelight dinners are a tried and true part of courtship and romance, and many such evenings start at the dinner table and end in bed. Some foods are even considered to be aphrodisiacs, essentially magic potions that increase sexual desire. People frequently incorporate food into their romance, flirting, and even lovemaking, and have been doing so for thousands of years. To a pair of young lovers, however, this can be a little confusing and intimidating. How, exactly, does one transition from eating to making love? Sensual dining is an art that must be practiced to be perfected, but this article will give you some tips to point you in the right direction. First, although using food as a tool of seduction is highly effective, it must be done slowly, gradually, and with subtlety. In other words, don't just walk into a room and start spraying your lover with whipped cream. That's likely to get you slapped instead of kissed. Let's start with the obvious connection between food and sex-the mouth. People generally do three things with their mouth-talk, eat, and kiss. Start with taking and eating. The main course is a time to chat, flatter, and flirt in the candlelight while you leisurely eat your meal, creating an atmosphere of love and romance. Feeding each other food is a sensual way to slowly build sexual tension and anticipation for what comes after the meal. But use a fork for now, not your fingers... yet. Desert is the time to begin your seduction in earnest, and slowly transition from using your mouth for talking and eating to eating and kissing. Choosing the right desert is very important. Keep in mind that you're looking for a food that, in addition to being special, delicious, and romantic, can also be essentially used for flirtation. To this end, try "finger foods," things that are small enough to be placed whole into your lover's mouth, and not too messy. Sticky fingers and stained clothes are a great way to break the romantic mood you've worked so hard to create. A little mess is okay-you might get lucky and have to clean a flake of chocolate off your lover's chin with a kiss. Deserts that are good for both eating and flirting include chocolates and other candies, nuts, marshmallows, fruit slices, and small cookies. Deserts that don't work well are either too large or too messy, such as cakes, pies, pastries, or ice cream. Now is the time to start feeding your lover with your fingers, and let them feed you. Next, kick it up a notch by placing a chocolate or orange slice between your teeth and passing it to your lover through a kiss. Then place a piece on a sensitive but relatively innocent part of your body, such as your inner wrist, or where your neck and shoulder meet, and invite your lover to eat it. With any luck, at some point during this combination of eating and kissing, the food will be forgotten, and you'll have completed the transition from dining to lovemaking. Another bonus of small, clean finger food deserts is that the bowl of candies can be easily picked up and carried to the bedroom, where you and your lover may find more creative and intimate uses for them.
