Top 10 Most Expensive Chocolates in the World
Chocolate is one of the most sought and traditional gifts that women yearn aside from the dazzling and radiant bouquet of flowers. Would you still desire and munch for more pieces of chocolates of various varieties if you would know the delightful prices of these most appetizing and luscious chocolates in the world? Chocolate was invented 15 years ago through the Cacao Tree in the central part of America. Cacao was one of the historical symbols and witnesses of the early Mayan Civilization since they considered it asGod Food or Food of the Gods. It is true that cacao is actually more familiar in Europe, which was being used early in the history as a bitter sweet drink being served in wealthy families. Another group of people who enjoyed drinking it was the Aztecs who called this fermented cocoa drink as Xocolatl, and since none could pronounce it properly, Spanish conquistadors changed it to Chocolat and later on, refined this word into Chocolate. Would you still be enticed with these top 10 most expensive chocolates in the worldthat could even cost your savings in the bank, and other fancy items that you have at home?
