Chocolate lovers might not realize there's a holiday specifically for them. World Chocolate Day, which occurs July 7, gives people the perfect chance to indulge in their favorite chocolate treats. Whether it's chocolate cookies or a box of chocolates, you'll find top gifts for World Chocolate Day to satisfy your sweet tooth.
World Chocolate Day was established in 2009 to acknowledge the chocolate fans around the globe. The date, July 7, is also the date in 1550 when chocolate was introduced in Europe when explorer Hernan Cortés brought cacao from the Americas to Spain. While chocolate started out as a drink, it would evolve over time to become a favorite snack or add-on to foods. Many chocolatiers and retailers provide discounts and possible freebies on this day. Restaurants and bakeries also make special chocolate desserts to celebrate the occasion.
Many popular treats contain at least some chocolate, from chocolate chip cookies to chocolate syrup on ice cream. Start the day with chocolate donuts or chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast. Give the chocolate lover in your life a box of chocolates that range from milk chocolate truffles to dark chocolate squares. A gift basket would include the above as well as chocolate-covered nuts and fruits. For a creative gift, buy a bouquet of real roses mixed in with hollowed chocolate-shaped roses. Buy desserts such as brownies, chocolate cake or muffins or you can make your own desserts using mixes. Many people enjoy chocolate fondue, so look into reputable chocolate fondue pots and fountains, including this 3-tier version from Nostalgia.
You can add chocolate creamer to your coffee or some adults might prefer chocolate-flavored liquor, including Bailey's and Mozart's dark chocolate liquor. Hot chocolate remains a favorite drink and certain brands provide a hot chocolate sampler set or bags of hot chocolate and mug set, such as Lake Champlain Chocolates' I ♥ ️ Hot Chocolate Gift Set.
Certain cooks might want a chocolate-based cookbook to find ways to add chocolate to their meals or find new desserts to make. Gift a friend a subscription to gourmet chocolates or pay for a chocolate-tasting class. Learn more about the history of chocolate by reading related books or going to a museum exhibit on chocolates. If you live near a chocolatier factory, learn how different chocolates are made and maybe even sample some treats.
