A Legacy of Chocolate and Cherry Cultivation
The marriage of chocolate and cherries represents centuries of culinary evolution. Dark chocolate's journey began with the ancient Mayans and Aztecs, who considered it a divine gift and used it in ceremonial drinks. The modern chocolate-making process, developed in Europe during the Industrial Revolution, transformed this ancient ingredient into the smooth, refined confection we know today.
Cherries have their own rich history, particularly in European and Middle Eastern cuisine. The cultivation of sweet cherries dates back to ancient times in the regions around the Black Sea and Caspian Sea. These fruits were prized not only for their flavor but also for their perceived medicinal properties.
The art of creating dragees itself has roots in medieval pharmacy, where sugar-coating was used to preserve medicines. This technique evolved into confectionery, becoming a sophisticated art form in French and Italian candy-making traditions.
