Cacao Research


Posted in: History of Chocolate

Well the Spanish invaded in the early 16th century and the Jesuit control of the Mayan plantations would presumably begin after that. So that time period.

Cacao Research


Posted in: History of Chocolate

I am doing personal research on the history of chocolate and I am having difficulty finding information on the Jesuit owned cacao plantations. I would like information on this area and time frame in general, but I have decided to focus on this area first just because it seems interesting. Would appreciate any input and everyone have a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa and whatever else that is celebrated at this time of year.

Intentional Chocolate: Fact or Hooey?


Posted in: Opinion

So intentional chocolate means that the chocolatier was thinking happy thoughts while producing the chocolates and the unintentional chocolate was made by a "cold" machine? I definetely agree that this idea leans more towards the new age, but if it works how are they going to control the chocaltiers thoughts? Play cartoons? Perhaps I am too skeptical or cynical, but if it really does work I've got Wallace and Gromit videos I'll donate for the cause.
