In 1764, it was discovered that cocoa beans that are ground between stones make cocoa powder...so Dr. James Baker financially backed the production of grinding cocoa beans to make cocoa powder. This is the beginning of the company still known as Baker's chocolate. Then in the 1830s and 1840s, it was primarily a drink that you mixed with water but it wasn't even sweet. By the 1920s, the humble chocolate cake had become mainstream, and manufacturers began to sell the recipe outright. O. Duff and Sons released the first boxed chocolate cake, ready to eat – no baking required and in 1947 Betty Crocker released a pre-made chocolate cake mix.
