JuegosChocolate has been cultivated in the Americas for thousands of years. The cacao plant, where chocolate comes from, is native to Mexico. It’s popularity spread across the world with Spanish colonization. Today, most chocolate is grown in hot, humid climates in a combination of direct sunlight and shade from tropical forests. The neutral soil of each of the world’s growing regions is surprisingly different, which contributes to the unique taste of each area’s chocolate. The most recognized cacao-producing regions are in Central and South America and Africa.

2 tbsps cold water
1/4 cup boiling water
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups cold whipping cream
2 tsps vanilla extract
Fresh berries for garnish, if desired.
Trabajo The higher the percentage of cacao, the more benefits and better nutritional value the chocolate contains.
For example, an average 65% dark chocolate serving would look something like this (these are estimates, as actual numbers will vary, depending on brand, size, etc.): Total Fat 15 g, Sat. Fat 9 g, Sugars 16g, Protein 3g.
Comparatively, an average 99% dark chocolate serving would look something like this (these are estimates, as actual numbers will vary, depending on brand, size, etc.): Total Fat 22 g, Sat. Fat 14 g, Sugars 2g, Protein 5g.
As you can see, the higher up the percentage scale you go, the less sugar and more protein you’re going to get.
You may also notice the high fat content, but the majority of this comes from healthy fats (yes, there is such a thing!).
