Chocolate is one of the most popular food types and flavors in the
world, and many foodstuffs involving chocolate exist, particularly
desserts, including cakes, pudding, mousse, chocolate brownies, and
chocolate chip cookies. Many candies are filled with or coated with
sweetened chocolate. Chocolate bars, either made of solid chocolate or
other ingredients coated in chocolate, are eaten as snacks. Gifts of
chocolate molded into different shapes (such as eggs, hearts, and coins)
are traditional on certain Western holidays, including
Christmas, Easter,
Valentine's Day, and
Hanukkah. Chocolate is also used in cold and
hot beverages, such as chocolate milk and hot chocolate, and in some
alcoholic drinks, such as creme de cacao.
