Combining chocolate with almonds has existed for more than two centuries. In 1742, the first cookbook to be published, "The Complete Housewife," contained a chocolate almond recipe.
Milk chocolate was first available as a drink, created by Jordan & Timaeus of Dresden, Germany, around 1845.
Daniel Peter mixed powdered milk and dark chocolate in 1875 and created the first milk chocolate candy bar that year called "Gala Peter." Milk chocolate was further enhanced in the coming years by Henri Nestlé, who happened to be a friend of Peter. Based upon the success of Gala Peter, they went on to found Nestlé Foods.
Conching, or the process of heating and grinding chocolate solids to make the consistency creamier and effortlessly blended, was developed by Rodolphe Lindt.
Milton Hershey economized the whole process, resulting in mass-produced milk chocolate.
And, of course, the men mentioned above became millionaires from their foray with cocoa. Lindt, Nestlé, and Hershey continue to be household chocolate names.
International Milk Chocolate with Almonds Day is sponsored by organizations, including the National Confections Associations.
