Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CHA-CHR
CHOCOLATE , a
paste
  of the ground kernels of the
cocoa
 
bean
 , mixed with
sugar
 ,
vanilla
  or other flavouring, made into a cake, which is used for the manufacture of various forms of sweetmeat, or in making the beverage, also known as " chocolate," obtained by dissolving cakes of chocolate in boiling
water
  or milk (see CoeoA). The word came into Eng. through the Fr. chocolat or Span. chocolate from the Mex. chocolatl. According to the New
English
  Dictionary (quoting R.
Simeon
 , Dict. de la langue Nahuatl), this was " an
article
  of food made of . . . the seeds of cacao and of the tree pochotl (Bombax ceiba)," and was etymologically distinct from the Mexican cacauatl, cacao, or
cocoa
 .
