Almond butter cups have been around for centuries, but they've only recently become popular as a healthy snack. The first almond butter cups were made in the early 1900s by a man named John Cadbury. Cadbury was a British chocolate maker, and he was looking for a way to use up some of the leftover almond butter from his chocolate factory. He came up with the idea of mixing the almond butter with chocolate and pouring it into molds. The result was a delicious and addictive treat that quickly became a favorite of Cadbury's customers.
