The explanation in today's lesson "Passing through Ice" includes some very interesting information on chocolates. If you're interested in the formation of the several crystal forms of chocolate, here's an interesting article for you - "Chocolate - The Noblest Polymorphism": Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3.

So the next time you eat some chocolate, don't forget there's a lot of science behind this sweet and satisfying substance that melts slowly in your mouth. Have fun!
