Chocolate

Chocolate has its origins in the South - and Central America and has been cultivated there for thousands of years. Back then they made chocolate drinks, which did not taste as we are used to, when the cocoa bean needs to be fermented in order to get the taste we are accustomed. Then they drank the unfermented chocolate drink and the drink had a name that translated as "bitter water" when the cocoa bean has a very bitter taste. For the Mayan Indians, chocolate was linked to the fertility goddess and the for the Aztecs chocolate were a drink for courage.

For us, today is probably chocolate associated with pleasure, love and big holidays such as Christmas, Easter and Valentine's Day. The smell of chocolate is a luxurious, surprisingly sweet with hints of caramel and a distinct aroma of chocolate.
