I am participating in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for American Heritage Chocolate. I received product samples to for review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.

Have you heard about American Heritage Chocolate??  Well I had not heard of it before but I am so glad I came across it!!  American Heritage Chocolate is an authentic historic recipe for chocolate and is made with ingredients that were only available in the 1750’s, it has a very one-of-a-kind flavor that is mildly spicy, and slightly sweet. American Heritage Chocolate is flavored with a blend of spices and ingredients available during colonial times, including cinnamon, nutmeg, chili pepper, orange, anise and vanilla.

And I have a recipe for you using  American Heritage Chocolate~Chocolate Almond Pinwheels,

Here is a little bit about American Heritage Chocolate:

Chocolate has been woven through the fabric of our culture for centuries. The stories of chocolate are the stories of our ancestors. That is why MARS partners with historic sites and museums across North America to share educational presentations that allow you to taste the journey of chocolate through time. We created American Heritage Chocolate, to let you taste history. It is an authentic historic chocolate product that uses only ingredients available in the 17th Century.

Did you know that chocolate has been enjoyed as a drink for over 3500 years? Or that Aztecs used cocoa beans as currency in 1519? Mars Chocolate North America created American Heritage Chocolate. It is an authentic historic recipe used in chocolate history demonstrations and is available for sale at over 130 living history museums and sites across the United States and Canada.
