Chocolate with Saffron

Inspired by the tradition mentioned in this notarial extract, we have thought to tell a little story about Chocolate with Saffron.
Cocoa and its Culture spread in Italy after the conquests of the New World.
This special food was introduced in the Abruzzi by the Spanish, while the Saffron was known in this region ever since Roman times.
In the Middle Ages the Saffron was even used instead of money and as an ingredient for various recipes.
