For a long time, chocolate was only consumed as a drink. But In 1802, an Englishman decided to crush cocoa beans with a steam machine.
What a great Idea ! By blending the results with cocoa butter and sugar, he succeeded In making the first chocolate bar.
Since then, the Idea has been developed and nowadays bars are sold in a huge variety of flavours.
