Chocolate Covered Cherry Day celebrates the cordial of cherries covered in chocolate.
The idea of covering fruits, nuts and even nougat with chocolate wasn’t really possible until the 19th Century. The technology needed to separate the chocolate from cocoa butter wouldn’t be invented until 1828 by Conrad Van Houten in today’s Netherlands. Without this process, chocolate could only be used as a spice, much the same way you would use cinnamon or ginger.
Fortunately, the process was developed and further techniques, including conching, invented by Rudolph Lindt in 1879 would eventually lead to that box of chocolates everyone loves to get.
Chocolate Covered Cherry Day is an unofficial holiday with no sponsor.
