The origin of Modica Chocolate, or Modican chocolate , is uncertain: Aztecs or Spanish?
Some sources report that the particular processing of the cocoa mass in combination with sugar was introduced by the Spanish rulers in the County of Modica In the 16th century who learned the technique from the Aztecs processing of cocoa beans using metate (a type of stone mill used for processing grains and seeds). The Aztecs, at the time, they were unaware of the existence of sugar and they used to consume cocoa in liquid form. The first to add sugar to the bitter cocoa mass were the Spanish, the true fathers of the first archaic form of chocolate which quickly spread throughout all their domains, including the County of Modica which, over the centuries, made chocolate its recognized distinctive element all over the world .
