Chocolate comes from the seeds of the cacao tree, which grows only within 20 degrees of the equator. Each tree produces only about 400 cacao beans per year — enough for less than one pound of chocolate.
Chocolate melts at just below 98.6°F — exactly human body temperature. That's why it melts so perfectly in your mouth the moment you take a bite!
The ancient Aztecs and Maya used cacao beans as currency. Ten beans could buy a rabbit, and 100 beans could purchase an enslaved person. Chocolate was literally worth more than gold.
The first solid chocolate bar, made by J. S. Fry & Sons in 1847, was dark and quite bitter. Milk chocolate wasn't invented until 1875, when Daniel Peter mixed in condensed milk.
Switzerland consumes more chocolate per person than any other country — about 20 pounds per person per year! It's also home to some of the world's most famous chocolate brands: Lindt, Toblerone, and Nestlé.
The process of "conching" — stirring liquid chocolate to make it silky smooth — was invented by Rodolphe Lindt in 1879. Some premium chocolates are conched for up to 72 hours to develop their flavor.
