Chocolate Might Get Expensive

Of all of the news article I get sent to me the ones I tend to post less are the stock news. Although I am aware that stock market trends affect candy prices and quality, I just find that it's pretty dull reading. However every once in a while I see such a trend that I figure it's at least worth mentioning. The trend now is the increase in the price of chocolate on the stock market. It's going up pretty high and with the crazy weather we've been seeing around the world cocoa crops might be affected and the prices may continue to rise. You might start to notice an increase in the price of chocolate treats, or even worse, you might start to notice that some chocolate companies will use more fillers and less cocoa.
