Imladrien has just left Hobbiton.

To add alittle seriousness to the topic, isn't chocolate a New World food, meaning it came from the Western Hemisphere? Tolkien took out a few references to New World items like tomatoes, the word 'tobacco', and even though he left 'potato' in, he generally called them "taters". So, I kinda doubt that Middle Earth had chocolate, I'm really sorry to say.
