Chocolate is a mainstream condiment that is used abundantly in the food industry. It is present in beverages, desserts, main course meals, fruit salads, ice creams, and whatnot. The reason why it is so popular is that chocolates are sweet and also have an underlying strong and bitter taste that adds richness to the overall flavour of the chocolate.
