About National Chocolate Covered Anything Day
When is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day? This holiday is always observed on December 16
Chocoholics rejoice! Today is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day. This December 16 holiday is a great day to indulge, binge, “pig out”, and otherwise consume to excess, your favorite food….chocolate. We believe the timing of this day, during the holiday season, couldn’t be better.
Today, we get to enjoy our beloved chocolate by covering something…just about anything… in a generous amount of chocolate. Pour, spread, or drizzle chocolate over cakes, cupcakes, pies, pancakes or waffles, nuts, raisins, and even ants (yes, some people actually eat chocolate-covered ants!). We will let you decide what is too extreme, and how much is too much if any.
As chocoholics, we shouldn’t need any added incentive to enjoy our chocolate. In the giving spirit of the holiday season, make sure to give or share some of your favorite chocolate-covered treats today.
Happy National Chocolate Covered Anything Day!!!!
