The document discusses the history and development of chocolate over centuries. It details how cocoa beans were first used as currency by the Maya and Aztecs before being transformed into a drink by the Mesoamericans. The Spanish later added sugar and introduced chocolate to Europe in the 16th century, where it became a popular drink among the elite classes. Over time, chocolate gradually transformed from a drink to solid bars and confections as methods for processing cocoa beans and manufacturing chocolate improved.
