Chocolate is the favorite of many people. It is smooth and silky in one mouthful and instantly full of happiness! The sweetness or bitterness of chocolate always has a magical power that can make you fall into it.


Chocolate is a sweet made from cocoa mass and cocoa butter. It not only tastes sweet, but also has a strong aroma. Chocolate can be eaten directly or used to make cakes, ice cream, etc.


Chocolate can be divided into three types: dark chocolate, milk chocolate and white chocolate.


1. Dark Chocolate


Cocoa powder contains polyphenol compounds, which have a certain bitter taste. So dark chocolate will be more bitter and have the richest chocolate flavor.


You can try to choose high total cocoa solids content, such as 65%, 80% black chocolate, not too bitter, and the sugar content is not too high. If you just like bitterness, then 99%, 100% dark chocolate is also very good.


2. Milk Chocolate


Although it is called milk chocolate, its main ingredient is neither cocoa nor milk, but white sugar. The ingredients list says milk powder, but the milk flavor you eat actually comes from the essence.


3. White Chocolate


There is no cocoa powder in white chocolate, only cocoa butter. It is basically composed of white sugar, milk powder, cocoa butter and flavor.


In fact, we love chocolate for a reason, let's find out where the magic of chocolate comes from.


First,because it is derived from a naturally occurring plant, chocolate is known to have some rather medicinal properties. According to science, eating chocolate not only tastes good but it can actually make you happy.


Chocolate contains chemicals like tryptophan which the brain uses to produce serotonin, the neurotransmitter and hormone responsible for feelings of happiness and joy. When people are depressed, low serotonin levels are usually at play.


That's because serotonin is the main hormone responsible for feelings of well-being and happiness. So, it really is as the saying goes, “As long as there is chocolate, there will be happiness.” The next time the world feels blue, do not hesitate to order your favorite candy bars.


Another thing that eating chocolate does for the brain and body is to help relieve stress. Have you ever had a long, hard day or been in an extremely stressful situation and found yourself craving chocolate because of it?


Well, that’s because eating chocolate not only releases serotonin but it also releases dopamine as well, which is another feel good hormone naturally produced in the brain. Most chocolate also contains caffeine, which can help you feel more productive!


However, with dopamine, it’s more about the experience of eating chocolate and not so much what’s in the chocolate itself. Dopamine is released every time you do something that brings you pleasure or joy, such as a good workout or that melt in your mouth, creamy, great tasting experience that eating chocolate brings.


Besides,it helps people feel good and it brings a sense of nostalgia as they unwrap their favorite chocolate candy and pop it in their mouths for one of the greatest sensations, guaranteed. And chocolate tastes great, in almost any combination. It's great with caramel, pretzels, mints, peanut butter ,the possibilites are endless!
