Additional Product Information
Health Benefits
A study, from the universities of Aberdeen, Manchester, Cambridge and East Anglia, found that people who eat up to 100g (3.5 oz.) of chocolate a day are 11% less likely to have a heart attack, stroke or other cardiovascular problem than people who did not eat any at all. Scientists at Cornell University in New York found that a diet rich in antioxidant foods helps protect the brain against the build-up of amyloid plaques, proteins that disrupt normal brain function and can cause dementia. A study published in the British Journal of Cancer in 2009, found that phenolics, another naturally occurring antioxidant found in chocolate, potentially boosted the immune system.
Fun Facts
In order to make one pound of chocolate roughly 300 cocoa beans are needed. On average farmers lose 30% of their crop each year due to the fact that cacao trees are so delicate. Chocolate comes from a fruit tree; it’s made from a seed. Cote d’Ivoire provides approximately 40% of the world’s cocoa supply, which makes it the single largest cocoa producer in the world. A farmer must wait four to five years for a cacao tree to produce its first beans. September 13th is International Chocolate Day.
How to Store and Select
Do not refrigerate! Chocolate absorbs other odors that can cause the chocolate to taste unpleasant. Moisture from the fridge can result in “sugar bloom” which means the sugar rises to the surface and discolors the chocolate. Although it has no effect on the flavor, it doesn’t look too appealing. Store your chocolates in a dry, cool place, ideally between 65 and 70 degree F. Seal your chocolates in an air-tight container and keep them away from sunlight or direct artificial light.
