Chocolate Bars
A chocolate bar is a confection containing chocolate, which may also contain layerings or mixtures that include nuts, fruit, caramel, nougat, and wafers. A flat, easily breakable, chocolate bar is also called a tablet. In some varieties of English and food labeling standards, the term ''chocolate bar'' is reserved for bars of solid chocolate, with '' candy bar'' used for products with additional ingredients. The manufacture of a chocolate bar from raw cocoa ingredients requires many steps, from grinding and refining, to conching and tempering. All these processes have been independently developed by chocolate manufacturers from different countries. There is therefore no precise moment when the first chocolate bar came into existence. Solid chocolate was already consumed in the 18th century. The 19th century saw the emergence of the modern chocolate industry; most manufacturing techniques used today were invented during this period. Dark, milk and white are the main three t ...

It burned down in 1909, so Mackintosh bought an old carpet factory and converted it into a new facility. When John Mackintosh died, his son Harold Mackintosh, 1st Viscount Mackintosh of ...
