National Milk Chocolate Day

Create yummy desserts, from cake to candy bars, with this light and creamy confectionery on Milk Chocolate Day and enjoy its mood-enhancing effects.

How is milk chocolate different from other chocolates? It’s a mix of cocoa solids and either dry or condensed milk. While dark chocolate is traditionally used as a baking ingredient, this lighter version is used to make chocolate candy bars, hot chocolate, and many other delicious desserts.

Did you know that chocolate actually has mood-enhancing benefits? That’s right—chocolate can make you happy! This is due to the fact that it contains a stimulant called theobromine and a compound called anandamide. Now that’s a reason to celebrate!

History of National Milk Chocolate Day

Daniel Peter, the inventor of milk chocolate, was born in the village of Moudon, located in the Canton of Vaud, in beautiful, mountainous Switzerland in 1836. Peter attended school and graduated there.

Later on in life, Daniel Peter had formed a strong friendship with his neighbor, Henry Nestle, who had settled in Vevey, Switzerland, about 1843. Nestle had developed a process to make baby food in which he used what was then called a “milky flour.” It was at this point in his life that Daniel Peter asked himself the question, “Why not try to make a chocolate containing milk?”

This idea stayed with the young Daniel Peter to the point of becoming an obsession with him. He further realized that in order to stay in the chocolate market, already principally controlled by Caliller, Suchard, Kohler, and others, he must produce a new product that would become

pleasing and desired by the consumer.It should be noted by all that since the early 20th century, the countries of Europe have been producing milk chocolate of varying qualities.

It should also be understood that the development of the process by Daniel Peter was created in the community of Vevey, with the Canton of Vaud, in Switzerland, and further pointed out that the first chocolate process, although not milk chocolate, was also created in Vevey, Switzerland, by Francois Louis Cailler, at the age of twenty-three, upon his return to that community from France and Italy in 1819.

National Milk Chocolate Day Activities

Eat a candy bar

Bake a cake

Drink your chocolate

Since it's National Milk Chocolate Day, your task is a delicious one. Grab your favorite milk chocolate candy bar and enjoy.  With so many mouth-watering choices like caramel, coconut or cookie nugget — take your pick. Then, spend some time licking the melted good stuff off your fingers.

During the Victorian era, baking a cake was expensive because sweet ingredients like sugar, chocolates and exotic fruits, were considered   as luxuries. Only the nobility and the upper middle class could afford cakes for birthdays, weddings or holidays. As prices dropped, every special occasion included a cake, ideally made out of milk chocolate and stacked in multiple layers.

No kids allowed. Dessert cocktails are perfect when you’re having a chocolate craving. They’re rich, creamy and made to satisfy that sweet tooth. Your favorite alcoholic beverage can be a perfect complement to milk chocolate.

Why We Love National Milk Chocolate Day

It’s the perfect ingredient

It's sweet yet adaptable

Don't believe the negative hype about milk chocolate not being nutritious

Nothing gets us more excited to bake than the idea of whipping up  a milky, chocolaty dessert when we're done. Whether the recipe uses milk chocolate chips or a milk chocolate bar,  a chocolate craving provides the perfect excuse to create a decadent, totally self-indulgent treat. Chocolate pudding, chocolate chip cookies, brownies, a triple-layered cake, whatever, just as long as the main ingredient is milky, silky, chocolate. Don't forget to lick the bowl!

We all know you can eat the sweet treat but did you know there are other uses for it, too? Milk chocolate is sometimes used in products for hair and skin care because it  contains little-known ingredients that are beneficial to your skin. The level of antioxidant compounds in cocoa is higher than that of green tea, black tea or red wine.

Ok, so the nutritional benefits of milk chocolate are not as extensive as those found in dark chocolate. But milk chocolate still has a lot going for it. For example, milk chocolate gives you stamina because it stimulates your brain and your emotions. Also, eaten in moderation, milk chocolate gives our bodies the fat we need in our daily diet.

It’s National Milk Chocolate Day!

Solid chocolate, when combined with either powdered, liquid or condensed milk, is known as #MilkChocolate.

By law in the U.S., a milk chocolate bar only needs to contain 10% cocoa, in the EU this number is 25% – a figure set by big chocolate companies, as the lower the cocoa contents the cheaper it is to manufacture.

It’s National Milk Chocolate Day! Although more people are choosing to eat dark chocolate, milk chocolate is still the clear favorite in the United States, with over half of adult consumers preferring this sweet variety. By law in the U.S., a milk chocolate bar only needs to contain 10% cocoa, in the EU this number is 25% – a figure set by big chocolate companies, as the lower the cocoa contents the cheaper it is to manufacture.
