Research to date supports that chocolate can be enjoyed as part of a balanced, heart-healthy diet and lifestyle.
Chocolate wasn't always solid, or sweet. Until 1847, chocolate was a delicacy enjoyed in bitter liquid form. The British chocolate company Fry and Sons introduced the concept of “eating chocolate” after combining cocoa butter, sugar, and chocolate liquor. This concoction was more grainy than smooth but was still enjoyed by many.
It takes 400 cocoa beans to make one pound of chocolate. Each cacao tree produces approximately 2,500 beans.
