9 Fun Facts about Chocolate that you didn't know
- White chocolate isn’t technically chocolate. It’s a confection using the fat from the cocoa bean or cocoa butter mixed with sugar and a few other ingredients. “Real” chocolate is made with chocolate liquor, which is pure ground cocoa paste.
- Chocolate has health benefits! It can act as a pain reliever, induce relaxation, boost energy, help prevent tooth decay, is good for heart health, and can even support a longer lifespan!
- The cacao tree originated in Central and South America, and is believed to have been cultivated as early as 2600 BC by pre-Olmec societies, and later by the Mayans and Aztecs. These cultures ingested chocolate as a thick, frothy, and bitter beverage, and used cacao beans as currency. They weren’t the only ones who knew chocolate’s worth: soldiers in the Revolutionary War were also sometimes paid in chocolate.
- Chocolate was introduced to Europeans in the 1500’s by Spanish explorers and Jesuit missionaries, where it was enjoyed almost exclusively by the aristocracy for more than a century.
- The first eating chocolate, or chocolate “bar,” was introduced in England in 1847, but didn’t gain popularity until the Swiss made it less bitter by adding milk in 1874.
- The scientific name for the cacao tree is Theobroma cacao, Latin for “food of the gods.”
- Chocolate famously pairs well with wine, but can be paired with just about anything like balsamic vinegar, meat and seafood, potato chips, chilies, honey, and bacon.
- Other traditional pairings include fruit, caramel, mint, peanut butter, coffee, pretzels, and cheese.
- Chocolate is the favorite flavor of more than 50% of adults in the US. We welcome you to our club!
