The sweetest secret for chocolate lovers



Many years after the first chocolate was introduced into the Spanish monarchy and failed to steal his approval, Cortez dared to present King Charles V the New World harvest for all people to become chocolate lovers in the Future.

The bittersweet taste of cocoa inspired very little support from its drinkers until Cortez surprised the world with the discovery that when mixed with sugar and milk, along with many other sweeteners and spices, chocolate can be very attractive! The cooking was venerated in the superior courts that the chocolate was reserved only for the nobility and the Spaniards refused to share this delicacy with any other nation.

The Dominican friars who used to process the revered beans finally revealed the secret in 1544 and soon took Europe for a storm.

A sweet chocolate love story in Paris

Chocolate was introduced in France when the Spanish princess Maria Teresa married Louis XIV of France. As a gift of engagement, he gave his fiancé a box of chocolates decorated with ornaments that took the heart of the French. His marriage must have been a maiden in the sky of chocolate because it was said that King Louis made love twice a day with his wife.

The aphrodisiac qualities of the chocolates were recognized even more by the French nobility, even their art reflected the dark and tempestuous charm of the chocolates. Stories like Casanova's using chocolates to seduce their lovers and Madame du Barry becoming a nymphomaniac were passed.

From a mistake to a praline

A funny chocolate anecdote comes to mind; The renowned Duke of Plesslis-Praslin remained once waiting for his dessert due to the accidental fall of a bowl of almonds in the kitchen. Frightened by the panic, the chef pours the burnt sugar over the beans. The Duke couldn't wait any longer, so as soon as the sugar went cold, the chef served him a plate of almonds covered with burnt sugar and was delighted. So impressed that you gave your name to this mistake! Today we know it as praline.

America greets Cadbury

Europe remains astonished by this delicious delicacy, while the Americans discover the chocolate and, in 1765, the first chocolate factory was built in the United States. Soon the main countries of Europe followed the examples of Spain along with America to establish more factories and find more ways to serve chocolate.

In 1828, it was discovered that adding some cocoa butter actually made the chocolate drink much softer. Between 1830 and the end of 1840, chocolate made the drink become a solid form and later a fondant was introduced. And so, in 1849, the Cadbury brothers exhibited their chocolate creations in Birmingham, England.

Swiss takes leadership

After many years of a dedicated study on how to process cocoa, the Swiss discovered a way to cook chocolate by refining it through the "conching ". It took about 72 hours of continuous rolling and refining. Soon after, putting the chocolate in the mouth, melts; So, the texture known today. It was also a Swiss who discovered a way to add chocolate flavor when filling it.

Any kind of chocolate you have with you today is the result of many years of devotion to the Xocoatl. The men before us have been captured and tempted to their centers that those who followed only continued with what they worked for a long time: making chocolate the staple food that is today. What started out as simple beans that men barely noticed has become a valuable gift, the creamy, lustful, rich candy for which chocolate lovers will die!
