Every year on July 28.

What is National Milk Chocolate Day?

National Milk Chocolate Day celebrates the creamy confection made from cocoa solids blended with dry or condensed milk. Swiss inventor Daniel Peter developed it in the 1870s after his neighbor Henri Nestlé's milk-powder process inspired him to soften dark chocolate's bitterness. His innovation sparked a sweeter alternative that would go on to dominate the global chocolate market. Today, the day is marked with a well-earned bar — or ten.
