After cacao finally reached France from South America, chocolate became very fashionable at the royal court of Versailles and throughout central Europe. Lutheran composer J.S. Bach was not at all hostile to these somewhat exotic pleasures of his day. In 1745, the Riquet family from France opened a shop in Leipzig where they sold delicacies such as chocolate pralines. Bach was known to go there to savour both the chocolate and the delicious French music!
