The origins of chocolate, which is derived from  the Theobroma cacao tree, stretch back at least 4000  years.The plant is believed to have originated in the Amazon or  Orin â¦ oco basins in South America and was regarded by the Aztecs as  being of divine origin ('Theobroma' means 'food of the  gods').
The history of chocolate begins in Mesoamerica. Fermented beverages made from chocolate date back to 1900 BC. The Aztecs believed that cacao seeds were the gift of Quetzalcoatl, the god of wisdom, and the seeds once had so much value that they were used as a form of currency. Originally prepared only as a drink, chocolate was served as a bitter, frothy liquid, mixed with spices, wine, or corn puree.
