Additive-Free Handmade Chocolate

Every wonder why the ancient Mayans drank chocolate instead of eating it? Hot chocolate, or cocoa rather, existed before chocolate truffles because it is a considerably difficult process to get the chocolate to solidify. But the Phoenix New Times reports that one choclatier, Sam Filicetti, has perfected the process without using additives.

In ancient times, Mayans drank cacao concoctions to achieve an altered consciousness believed to bring them close to a god-like state. It was this promise of elevated awareness and an interest in Divine Metaphysics that initially attracted Sam Filicetti, an electrical engineer, to chocolate-making.

The Mayans drank the chocolate, but we prefer to bite into it and getting the cacao mixture to the perfect state is where the modern magic happens. The process of getting chocolate to solidify and form a shiny coating is tricky.

Filicetti, who calls his company ib2, explains that many large chocolate producers use a small amount of paraffin to guarantee the glossy finish and this addition can give the finished product a slightly waxy taste.
