Formation: (A mí) me gusta el chocolate (I like chocolate: To me chocolate is pleasing)

(A ti) te gustan los chocolates (You like chocolates; To you chocolates are pleasing)

(A usted/A él/A ella) le gustan los chocolates (You (formal) like (He/She likes) drinking tea, To you, him, her drinking tea is pleasing.
