Chocolate

General Information

As early as a millennium before the Europeans discovered the Americas, cocoa was already known to the natives as both a food and a natural stimulant. At first the Europeans did not like the taste of the unsweetened cocoa mixture. This changed though with the addition of honey or cane sugar and cocoa products quickly spread all over the world. Over time, the word we use today – chocolate – evolved from the Aztec word "xocóatl", from "xócoc" (= sour, bitter, spicy) and "atl" (= water). Today chocolate is available in a multitude of different types and qualities, forms and flavors. One can distinguish between dark, milk and white chocolate, for which the composition and requirements for the cocoa and chocolate products they contain are strictly prescribed in the EU under Directive 2000/36/EC.
