Enjoying this specialty bitter chocolate will boost your mood! It’s as great an excuse as any to share moments with loved ones and has a positive effect on psychological wellbeing as it reduces anxiety and stress. A mouth-watering comfort food, low in sugar!

Becoming a favorite indulgence…

If today you find yourself on your sofa enjoying a hot beverage of bitter chocolate, it’s thanks to the Aztecs and the Mayans. As, when they discovered cocoa seeds, they also discovered the healing and pleasurable properties of this beverage.

Such properties were so unique that when Spanish explorers came across this strange flavor, they decided to keep the discovery of the “food of Gods” a secret. At first enjoyed without milk and just a bit of sugar, it quickly became the most enjoyable beverage of the Spanish court for almost a century! It was only when the daughter of Philip III of Spain got married to French King Louis XIII that chocolate took the leading role among the pleasures of European aristocrats.

And for good reason!

The until-then-unknown intense flavor of chocolate, took their breath away! From Mexico and Central America, it traveled to Spain, France and then throughout Europe. By 1800, it was established as everyone’s favorite beverage!

Bitter chocolate isn’t a guilty pleasure, it’s pure pleasure.

Today, many researchers insist this is a healthy snack! In fact, they claim it improves blood circulation, reduces the risk of a stroke, benefits the skin and the list goes on…
