EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled 'Cadbury's Cocoa' and hailing from the pages of 'The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper' in 1890, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian-era science and industry. The photograph features an enigmatic man, dressed in the attire of a scientist or laboratory worker, intently examining a microscope as he extracts a viscous, chocolate-hued substance from a beaker. The intriguing scene unfolds in a meticulously arranged laboratory, filled with an impressive assortment of scientific instruments and chemical apparatus. At the time, Cadbury's Cocoa was a groundbreaking product, as the company was one of the first to introduce cocoa essence to the market. The essence, derived from cocoa beans, was a significant improvement over the bitter, unsweetened cocoa powder that was commonly used in the late 19th century. This photograph likely represents the scientific process behind the creation of this innovative new product. The image's origins are unknown, and it remains a mystery who the man in the photograph is. However, his focused expression and the pristine conditions of the laboratory suggest that he was an integral part of the Cadbury's team, contributing to the company's pioneering work in the realm of cocoa production. This print serves as a testament to the scientific ingenuity and industrial prowess of the Victorian era, offering a unique perspective on the people and processes behind the creation of a beloved beverage.
