Our very own Milk Chocolate Covered Caramel Pretzels are a sweet delight. First comes the crunch, then the melting chocolate, the hint of sea salt, and finally the fulfillment of the promise: chewy caramel. Kept safe within the Temple of American History -- the National Archives Building on the cover of our custom box -- you'll have to watch out for those who want them in their holdings!
Long part of American life, chocolate first arrived in North America in 1641, when crates loaded on a Spanish ship sailed to St. Augustine, Florida. In colonial America, chocolate was exclusively a drink and was affordable to all classes of people, offered at most coffee houses. A food item that could be transported in solid blocks without spoiling, it became a military ration, helping to maintain soldiers’ energy. By the late 19th century, improved methods of processing chocolate changed it from a gritty product into a smooth, melt-on-the-tongue luxury with a pleasing aroma. Thus began the transformation of chocolate from a drink into a confection. By the 1920s, eating chocolate had surpassed drinking chocolate in popularity.
