One of the most popular and highly consumed food product across the globe is chocolate. The chocolate spread is a sweet chocolate flavored paste which is mostly spread on bread, doughnuts, toasts, pancakes and other similar grain products. The spread usually contains cocoa and palm or vegetable oil and sometimes also contain butter, milk, sugar and additional flavors.
There is significant growth in the sales of chocolate spreads in the past few years and become the second most popular choice for spreads. The chocolate spread is an integral part of every breakfast. The rising health consciousness among people led to high demand for low-calorie spreads.
The chocolate spreads and peanut butter are slowly replacing the jam and marmalade as the most popular breakfast spreads due to its high nutritional content and low fat.
