Chocolicious 'Hi'

Click a chocolicious 'hi' to your friend or a sweet wish to your Teachers/parents/grandparents and make them feel extra special! Chocolate is one of the life's great pleasures and was first brought to the western world some 400 years ago, when Spanish explorers came across it in South America. At first it was used only as a drink, but in the 19th century, the familiar chocolate bar was invented in Switzerland and quickly became the world's most popular confection. The tree that yields chocolate is aptly named Theobroma, which means food of the gods. The tree has been cultivated for so many centuries that there are probably no wild trees left. It is from the pale purple-pink beans within the pulp of the hanging fruit that chocolate is made.

7th July is Chocolate day but how it started celebrating, I am not sure. Well, here's a Candy Addict Blog and I am sure, you will have fun exploring the site and celebrate Chocolate day. It sure is an Excuse to eat Chocolates! You can find my Chocolate Recipe page here on Kidsfreesouls and even wish Chocolate day to someone you love dearly and send cart load of chocolates. Enjoy.
