BAKER'S Chocolate enjoys a sweet history that started before the American Revolution! In 1765, a Massachusetts physician, Dr. Baker, went into partnership with a young Irish chocolate-maker, John Hannon. Together, they formed America's first chocolate mill, where, in 1780, they made a blend of quality chocolate called BAKER'S chocolate. This makes BAKER'S chocolate the oldest trademark on grocery shelves today! In the 1920s, BAKER'S chocolate was offered in a number of flavors, including Unsweetened and GERMAN'S Sweet. These are still two of the most popular flavors of chocolate that are sold today! In 1927, General Foods bought the chocolate company, and in 1989, Kraft and General Foods merged into what is now Kraft Foods, Inc. Kraft Foods has continued the great tradition of making baking products started by Dr. Baker over two centuries ago. Today, BAKER'S products are offered in a variety of forms and flavors, perfect for any baking occasion. Chocolate Baking Squares are ideal for making chocolate chunks for cookies or for melting in the microwave for brownies, cakes, or fudge. You can find BAKER'S Chocolate Baking Squares in 5 flavor varieties: Semi-Sweet, Unsweetened, GERMAN'S Sweet, Bittersweet, and White. BAKER'S Dipping Chocolate , BAKER'S Chunks & Melts and BAKER'S Coconut are other great ways to enjoy the goodness of BAKER'S.
