I'm going to tell you how chocolate goes from the pod to the packet.

The first thing they do when making chocolate is to cut the pods off the tree when they are ripe. Then they take out the white seeds and put them in boxes covered up so they ferment. After 6 days they put the fermented seeds on a bed to dry out. Once the seeds are dried they are roasted and they separate the outer shell from the chocolate inside. This is put into a press to make a chocolate paste. The paste is then pored into a machine and milk and sugar is added to make sweet. This mixture is stirred for about 2 days and then placed into moulds to make the chocolate bar.

The chocolate factory looks great, although i thought there was some kin of dead thing inside the coco pod in the 1st photo…not so appetising! Was the chocolate delicious? Great photos to go with your story Scarlett.

If the chocolate doesn't have sugar than it's really bitter.
