English term or phrase: sugar daddy of them all
It is a text about chocolate.

la golosina más...
Explanation:
Por el contexto citado, mi sugerencia sería:

Pero también es un negocio próspero; tanto así que la golosina más antigua y tentadora / popular / ampliamente de difundida de todas es objeto de / tiene / tendrá un festival dedicado exclusivamente a ella (la golosina) / él (el chocolate).

Una idea, algo diferente a las acepciones de "sugar daddy" ofrecidas por los(as) colegas. ¡Suerte!
