New York’s first chocolate museum rich in history and calories

The sweet history of chocolate is assembled in New York's first chocolate museum founded by famed pastry chef and chocolatier, Jacques Torres. New York's new Chocolate Museum celebrating the sweet stuff back to its ancient Mayan roots, when it was first produced as a drink later turned to tasty morsels by Europeans in a process that's continually perfected, says famed chocolatier and museum owner Jacques Torres. Tour the chocolate artifacts and accouterments - who knew there were once fancy 'mustache' cups that prevented hot chocolate from sticking to a hairy upper lip? Torres also indulging patrons with truffle-making lessons. No word on whether you get to lick the pan.
