A Sweet History

The origins of chocolate can be traced back to ancient Mexico and Central America over 2000 years ago. The Mayans and Aztecs believed that chocolate was a gift from the gods and consumed it in religious ceremonies. The Spanish conquistadors brought chocolate to Europe where it became a popular drink among the wealthy. Over time, it evolved into the solid form we know and love today.

Mystical Journey

Not only is chocolate delicious, but it also has some interesting metaphysical properties. In ancient times, it was believed to have the power to bring happiness, energy, and love. Some cultures even believed that it had aphrodisiac properties. Today, many still believe that chocolate has the power to soothe the soul and bring joy.

Appreciating Chocolate in Today's World

How can we appreciate chocolate in today's world? First, it's important to understand that not all chocolate is created equal. High-quality chocolate should have a rich, smooth taste and a creamy texture made with high-quality ingredients, such as cocoa butter.

Savoring Every Bite

One way to appreciate chocolate is to slow down and savor every bite. Take the time to fully enjoy the flavor and texture. Pay attention to the different notes and how they change as you chew. The chocolate should be melting in your mouth, leaving you with a satisfying and decadent taste.

Exploring its History and Different Flavours

Another way to appreciate chocolate is to explore its history and learn about the different cultures that have been inspired by it. Mexican hot chocolate, for example, is a spicy intoxicating blend of chocolate, chili peppers and cinnamon that is sure to awaken your senses!

Finally, one of the best ways to appreciate chocolate is to share it with others. Give a bar of your favourite chocolate to a friend or loved one. Share a piece of chocolate after a meal. Or, even better, host a chocolate tasting party with your friends.
