Given the state of the economy over the last few years, it might seem surprising that the demand for super premium chocolate, sourced by experts in remote parts of Latin America and Africa and assembled by hand in small factories in the US, would take off in such a big way -- but it has. Since the depths of the financial crisis and recession in 2008 and 2009, there has been a surge in the number of people who are willing to pay $6, $7, or $8 or more, for a bar of chocolate.
