Did you know that chocolate comes from a tree? The cacao（可可）tree gets large brown fruits called cocoa pods（荚）, and inside the pods are cocoa beans. To make chocolate, first we leave the beans in the dark for a few days, and then dry them in the sun. That liquid（液体）is pressed until it separates and the result is cocoa butter（可可脂）, which can be turned into chocolate.
The first people to grow cacao trees for chocolate were the Mayans, who lived in Mexico thousands of years ago. When people from Spain came to Mexico, they discovered the drink, they took chocolate home with them, and soon the love for chocolate spread all over Europe!
