''The oldest record of North Americans trading in cocoa beans is found in the diary of Massachusetts Bay’s mint-master John Hull. In the winter of 1667 – 1668, he noted the loss of “our ship Providence … cast away on the French shore … [carrying] … cocoa." One of the earliest records of chocolate in North America (New England region) dates to 1670 when Dorothy Jones and Jane Barnard were given approval to serve “ Coffee and Chucaletto" in houses of "publique Entertainment” by the selectmen of Boston [2] . Did Jones and Barnard manufacture the chocolate themselves or did they import it? The answer is unclear. The oldest British customs record showing cocoa arriving in America reads: "1682 … Jamaica … to … Boston ” [3] . Was this the first shipment? Perhaps. There may be earlier examples yet to be discovered."''<br/> |
