DESCRIPTION
Handmade! Using an old-time recipe! Candy bars were invented in 1847, England, but became the silky-smooth chocolate treats we enjoy today. And what could be better than these milk chocolate bars, handmade from the moment the chocolate is melted down to the final stages of cooling…using an original turn-of-century recipe! The taste is pure milk chocolate, none of the waxy flavor and texture from commercial manufacturers. The molds are traditional: denser and more compact than flat bars, creating an amazing mouth feel driven from the past. Comes with two bars with a keepsake tag telling the story of the candy on one side with a period image on the other.

A Quick Bite of Candy History
The story of milk chocolate is one of romantic love, tragedy, innovation, glory and fame. It begins with Daniel Peter, a Swiss candle -maker and confectioner. Sales of his chocolate had slumped and he needed to figure something out. Then tragedy struck! His newborn baby was dying as she couldn’t take mothers’ milk. Peters ran to the home of a pharmacist who was working on making infant formula. He reluctantly give the unfinished formula to Peters to try out. The baby accepted it and survived. About five years later, Peters – the confectioner – and the pharmacist, figured out how to blend the formula with chocolate and create milk chocolate. Who was the pharmacist? Henri Nestle. Based on the content in Susan’s award-winning book "Sweet as Sin."

The Rise of Chocolate Bars and Industrial Revolution
Chocolate's journey began in Mesoamerica, where cacao beans were cultivated by ancient civilizations like the Olmecs, Maya, and Aztecs, before making its way to Europe. Early settlers in America, such as Dorothy Jones and Jane Barnard, sold chocolate alongside coffee, while John Hannon started the first chocolate mill, leading to the creation of Baker's Chocolate. By the 1800s, the Industrial Revolution brought innovations like French-style cream-filled candies and Lindt's conching machine, which transformed chocolate's texture. In the 1900s, companies like Shrafft's Confectionary produced luxurious chocolates blending French and American styles. Our chocolates honor this rich history, combining classic flavors with a modern twist—wait until you try...
