Certification
Certification for cocoa farming is a transparent, credible, and ongoing
process that reports on labor conditions in the West African cocoa farming sec-
tor – on a country-by-country basis. Cocoa certification represents a major step
forward in efforts to improve the well-being of children, farm families and
communities in the cocoa sector. It is the first program ever to address labor
issues involving a farm-based commodity grown on several million small fami-
ly-owned and -operated farms in some of the world’s most remote regions.

Chocolate
The story of chocolate begins more than 2,000 years ago in equatorial
Central America where the Mayan Indians held cocoa beans in high regard.
Mayan writings refer to cacao as "food of the gods". It was the Mayans who
first created a beverage from crushed cocoa beans which was enjoyed by royal-
ty and shared at sacred ceremonies. Chocolate’s importance in the Aztec Em-
pire also is clearly recorded. Although Christopher Columbus brought a handful
of cocoa beans to Spain in 1502, it was Hernando Cortes who was successful in
introducing drinking chocolate sweetened with cane sugar to the European au-
dience after his visit to what is now known as Mexico in 1519.
