National Chocolate Day

Celebrate National Chocolate Day with Dark, Milk and White Chocolate!

October 28th is National Chocolate Day, and we’re here to make sure you get your cocoa fix in all the right ways. From dark, milk and white chocolate, there’s a flavor for every chocolate lover out there. But what’s the difference between these three types of chocolate? Let’s take a look at each one.

Dark Chocolate

This type of chocolate contains the highest amount of cocoa solids so it has the most intense flavor. Because of this, it can be slightly bitter but that just means that it’s less sweet than other types of chocolate. It also has an array of health benefits such as being rich in antioxidants, reducing inflammation, and improving your cholesterol levels.

Milk Chocolate

This is the most popular type of chocolate consumed in the US today. It has a mild sweetness thanks to its combination of cocoa solids, sugar and added milk powder. This makes it light and creamy when compared to dark chocolate. A great way to use this kind of chocolate is by heating it up into fondue or melting it down to make homemade truffles!

White Chocolate

Contrary to popular belief, white chocolate isn’t actually considered real “chocolate” since it doesn’t contain any cocoa powder; instead, it’s made with cocoa butter along with sugar, milk and vanilla extract. Its delicate sweetness makes it an ideal pairing with fruits like strawberries or cherries while its creamy texture makes for an amazing frosting on cakes or cupcakes!

No matter which type you choose to celebrate National Chocolate Day with this year — dark, milk or white — there are so many delicious ways to enjoy them! Whether you decide to go for something classic like a box of truffles or create something unique like a white chocolate raspberry tart, you can be sure that whatever you make will be absolutely scrumptious! So don’t wait any longer — get creative in the kitchen and start celebrating National Chocolate Day!
