Every year on February 1.

What is National Dark Chocolate Day?

National Dark Chocolate Day on February 1 is an American food day for chocolate with a high share of cocoa and little or no milk. Its roots go back to the cacao drinks of Mesoamerica, where the Olmec, Maya and Aztecs prepared ground cacao beans as a bitter, often spiced drink long before sugar reached it. People mark the day by tasting bars of different cocoa percentages and origins, baking with dark chocolate or pairing it with coffee, fruit or nuts.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
