What is chocolate?
Chocolate is made from the dried seeds that are found in pods on the cocoa tree. Real chocolate is made from cocoa and its ingredients include cocoa butter and 5% vegetable fat.

History
According to Anthropologist, chocolate was first produced by Pre-Olmec cultures living in Mexico 1900 B.C ago. MesoAmericans cultivated cocoa plant at rainforest in Central America and fermented the seeds to be mix with water, vanilla, honey, chili peppers as well as other spices to make a frothy chocolate drink (Klein, C, 2014).
Civilizations named Olmec, Mayan and Aztec believe that chocolate contains mystical and spiritual qualities as it is used as mood enhancer. Mayans believe in worshipping a god of cocoa and often associated with reserving chocolates for priest, rulers, warriors and sacred ceremonies. Furthermore, it is believed that 16th century Aztec emperor drank three gallons of chocolate per day to increase his libido (Klein, C, 2014).
In 1500s in Spain, chocolate was potrayed as symbol of luxury, power and wealth since only can be sipped by royal lips and Spanish elites because of its expensive import. Spain kept the chocolate secret until daughter of Spanish King Phillip III marries France King Louis XIII in 1615. Soon, the popularity of chocolate sprout all over European countries.
In 1847, British Chocolate company J.S. Fry and Sons produced the first solid chocolate bar from cocoa butter, cocoa powder and sugar (Klein,C, 2014). Invention of conching machine by Rodolphe Lindt from Bern in 1879 enable production of chocolate in better texture, great aromas and taste ((Klein, C, 2014).
Chocolate starts to boom in 1800s and 1900s by companies such as Cadbury, Ferrero Rocher, Kit Kat, Mars and etc all over the world and about 75 dollar billions are spent on chocolate annually by people worldwide.
