Description
The cost of cocoa beans has surged to a record $10,000 per metric ton. That's expected to make chocolate more expensive for millions of confectionary fans around the world.

He describes how a combination of chronic underinvestment in cocoa supply has run head first into financial markets to squeeze prices higher.
