Chocola MMMM te Where did chocolate come from And how to make Mayan Chocolate!
Where did chocolate come from? • The first people to make chocolate were the ancient mesoamerican tribes of Mexico and Central America, including the Incas, Aztec and Mayans. They mixed ground cacao, or kah-kow seeds with seasonings to make a spicy, drink called chocolatl. It was rather bitter however, so the Spaniard conquistadors, who had been served this drink by the Aztec Emperor, Montezuma, decided to add sugar cane to the drink to create a drink more palateable to European tastes. It was not until the late 1700s that the first form of solid chocolate was invented by a frenchman, Doret who designed a machine to crush the beans and mix and blend the chocolate paste. In 1780, an entrepreneur began the mechanical production of chocolate in Bayonne. In 1819 François Louis Cailler opened the first Swiss chocolate factory on the banks of Lake Leman (Lake Geneva) and there produced the first bar of chocolate in history.
