We’re all looking forward to warm July days, long walks in the park, a picnic, and a few days off work. But for chocolate lovers, July is a great month to celebrate World Chocolate Day 2023!

What is World Chocolate Day?

Every year on July 7, people worldwide, especially chocolate lovers, celebrate World Chocolate Day, sometimes called International Chocolate Day. Since 2009, people have marked this day by giving, eating, and creating chocolate as a tribute to the well-known decadent food.

One of the most popular sweets in the world is chocolate. According to historians, today marks the anniversary of the 1550 introduction of chocolate to the world. It’s so well-liked that a whole day has been set aside to celebrate it! It is a day to indulge in your favorite sweet dessert from cacao plant seeds. 

The Mayan people originally referred to this delicious delicacy as the “drink of the gods,” but it also has a long history. The cacao tree produces pods and yields the seeds used to make chocolate. It has been cultivated for countless years in Central America’s tropical jungles.

On July 7, you could see your neighborhood cafes and bakery shops promote World Chocolate Day with attractively decorated chalkboards or special deals. You might not even realize it’s a special day if it weren’t for this. There are many ways to enjoy chocolate, whether you favor milk, dark, or white varieties.
