Description
Chocolate originated in Mexico with the Aztec Indians and was introduced to Spain by the Spanish conquistadors. Christopher Columbus encountered cocoa beans for the first time in 1502. The Aztecs used cocoa beans to make a bitter, foamy beverage called chocolate, which was consumed during religious celebrations. The Spaniards weren't initially fond of chocolate, but that didn't stop them from shipping the beans back home. Charles I
received a shipment in 1525, and Spain held a monopoly over the cocoa trade for about a hundred years. Although cocoa arrived in Italy in the late 16th century, it didn't truly become a trend outside of Spain until 1615, when Louis XIII married Anne of Austria, the daughter of King Philip III of Spain. Chocolate was served at their wedding in Paris, and shortly afterward, it became a favorite drink among French aristocrats.
Throughout the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, chocolate remained the most popular beverage in Spain. Richard Ford noted that chocolate "is to the Spanish what tea is to the English and coffee to the French." Today, Spain is a major producer of chocolate
