How is chocolate made?

Chocolate actually starts as a fruit growin' on a tropical tree! See those big, yellow football-shaped things? Those are Cocoa Pods, the secret treasure chests where chocolate begins. Inside, you'll find sticky White Seeds. They don't look like chocolate yet, but they're the superstars of the show! Next, they take a nap in the heat for Sun Drying. The sun sucks out all the water so the seeds get nice and crunchy. Then comes Roasting! We cook 'em in a big oven to wake up that AMAZING chocolatey smell we all love. Now for the messy part: Grinding! A big machine smashes the beans so hard they turn into a thick, gooey chocolate river. During Mixing, we stir in sweet sugar and milk to make it taste *delish*. Finally, after Cooling down in a tray, it gets hard enough to SNAP into a bar! YUM! Tiny Concepts.
