How chocolate is made?

Chocolate is a difficult process to make unless you buy certain ingredients and not making chocolate from scratch. First, chocolate comes from cocoa or cacao beans. These beans grow on farms and they must be picked. The beans come in a pod. Each pod must be opened and the beans should be grounded with a pestle and mortar.

Then the chocolate is in an unsweetened powder. At this point, the chocolate would not taste that great. The sugar, butter, and vanilla should be added. Over heat, the ingredients will be mixed and heated until the candy comes to a certain temperature depending upon what is being made. Then the mixture should be poured into molds. After a while, the chocolate will harden.
