World Chocolate Day 2023: History

Founded in 2009, World Chocolate Day commemorates the alleged anniversary of the first experience with Europe in 1550. On this day, candy shops and local suppliers all over the world offer their finest chocolate treats to customers of all ages. The seeds of the Theobroma Cacao tree, which has been grown for a long time in Mexico, Central America, and Northern South America, are the source of original chocolate. Today, Africa leads in cacao tree creation. The seeds undergo fermentation to make their delicious flavour, which results in a bitter taste.

World Chocolate Day is a global celebration of one of life's most exquisite indulgences that takes place on July 7 each year.
