History of Chocolate

Millions of people, especially women all over the world, love chocolate. May be the word love is not strong enough. Its better to say that many people are extremely passionate about chocolate. However, not many people know where chocolate comes from or how it is made. I hope the resources on this page will provide you with this knowledge. I read these materials with great interest; I consider myself a chocoholic and I wanted to know more about my favorite sweet. Who knows, may be chocolate will taste differently to you, after you know more about it I wish you a pleasant journey into the history of chocolate! |
