Description

Excerpt from Cocoa and Chocolate: A Short History of Their Production and Use, With a Full and Particular Account of Their Properties, and of the Various Methods of Preparing Them for Food

It appears that, in the time of Charles II., the price of the best chocolate (very crude, undoubtedly, as compared with the present manufactures), was 63. 8d. A pound, which, if we take into account the greater purchasing power of money at that time, would be equal to at least $5 a pound at this time for a coarse compound.
