Few things in this world are more delightful than chocolate, and few of us can resist it. The Aztec and Mayan civilizations considered it a food of the gods, and it is reported that the Aztec Emperor, Montezuma, drank up to fifty cups of 'chocolatl' a day. The conquering Spaniards under Cortez took the drink back to Spain, where it underwent a transformation to a beverage more pleasing to their palate, and from there, it spread throughout Europe. The first factory in the United States in 1765, and the love affair between Americans and chocolate began. The rest, as it is said, is history.

This page is my tribute to what I feel is the world's most perfect food, and my friends in the Quilting Circle of Friends have been more than happy to help express my obsession here, since most of them are practicing chocoholics like me! Each square of this quilt is linked to its makers site so my visitors here can also enjoy their web pages as well.
