Forget the
run-of-the-mill chocolates like Cadbury's Dairy Milk, Hershey's, Lindt,
Ghirardelli etc. These chocolate treats here leave them all behind!
The word "chocolate" comes from the Aztecs of Mexico,
and is derived from the Nahuatl word xocolat which is a combination of
the words, xocolli, meaning "bitter", and atl, which is "water".
Chocolate was discovered by Mayans of the Yucatán Peninsula, in México
about 2,600 years ago or so, as evidence found in ruins suggest.
Did you Know?
Roughly two-thirds of the entire world's cocoa is produced in Western Africa, with 43% sourced from Côte d'Ivoire!
