\ Popular Confection Made Fro! * HW next time that you open a box of candy or un- wrap @ bare of chocolate it may be Interesting to recall that Co» lumbus not only discovered Amer- ica but this de- lightful confeo- tion as well, Un~ ul he returned with samples of this delioacy from the New World, Burope knew nothing of it. Columbus found the cacao tree flourishing both in @ wild and oulti- Weied state in Mexioo, being highly (prized as a food by the natives of that country and Peru. The explorer tmtroduced it into Spain, where, to Wile day, it is more extensively used fan in any other country. That it was known in England in 1657 is @hown by this announcement, pub- fished In the Public Advertiser of that year: “In Bishopgate Street, in Queen's Alley, at a Frenchman's house, an excellent Wost Indian drink | @alled chocolate, to be sold wh you 4 may havo it ready at any time and '} plso unmade, at reasonable rates, {Chocolate comes from the seed of | ] ( the cacao tree, which ts often, but ineorrectly, spelled cocoa, The tree gtows to a hoight of about eighteen feet when cultivated, but is larger { im the wild state, From ite trunk grow pods from seven to ten Inches | Jong and three to five inches In diam- eter, and divided into five celle or e@ompartments.

Next they are sweated or oured, an operation which rids them of an acid and which must be carefully directed, since upon It depends the quality and market value of the beans, They are cured in two ways, by being placed in @ sweating box or by being buried in @ clay trench. This concluded, the beans of fine quality now have a warm, reddish color. ‘t the factory the beans are roasted in @ revolving cylinder which devel- ops the aroma. Next the husks or shells are crushed and separated from the kernols, These kernels, eacao in its purest form, are called cocoa-nibs. Chocolate is made by grinding these nibs nto an ofly paste and mixing it with sugar and some favoring #ub- stance, Cocoa consists of these ntbs alone, whether they are ground or un- ground, dried and powdered, or the crude paste dried in flakes. Cakes of chocolate are made by heating the mixture of cacao, sugar and flavoring extract until an aven paste 1s secured. This passes sev- eral times between heavy rollers to get a thorough mixture, after which it 1s poured {nto moulds and allowed to cool, This is the way milk choo- olate, the favor of which depends on what the manufacturer puts in the mixture, is mde, Often starehy ma- trials are included to’ make the cakes more firm, but this adds nothing to the quality of the chocolate, Among other products of the oacac- seed ts “broma,” the dry powder of the seeds after the oll has been ex- tracted. Cocoa shells, the husks in- closing the beans, are ground into a fine powder and sold to make a kind of cocoa for drinking, but this lacks much of the flavor and nourishing quality of the real cocoa. Cocoa but- ter is the oll extracted from the seeds. It has a pleasant odor and chooolate- like taste and Is used for making soaps, ointments, &c.
