The creation and development of the chocolate market depended on a New World and Old World partnership. Coenrad Van Houten used his expertise as a Dutch cocoa manufacturer to use a pressing technique to remove the majority of the cocoa butter from the bean in 1828. The cocoa powder that remained was much easier to mix together with water because it came out thinner and defatted. Van Houten then proceed to develop a specific process to treat the cocoa powder he created with alkaline salts, a method know named “Dutching”. This made cocoa powder easier to prepare and digest, so Van Houten consequently took the initial steps getting closer to the manufacturing of chocolate on a mass scale, spreading it around for mass consumption. Milton Hershey, a Mennonite from Pennsylvania, is credited for the proper developments in the processes for pressing chocolate that would eventually lead it to being sold at economical prices, for increased distribution.
