The secret recipe of Rosa Cannabich, a contemporary of Mozart. This is a wonderfully unctuous drink, which I tasted recently. It was served to the “Court” audience in the inner sanctum during a performance called “Mozart au chocolat” by a troupe of French performers when they came to London. Mozart himself is reputed to have tasted this at Mannheim in 1778.
