What is World Chocolate Day?
In 2025, World Chocolate Day falls on July 7. It marks the moment chocolate arrived in Europe in the fifteenth century and began its delicious journey to global obsession.
Around the world, chocolate is celebrated on different days throughout the year, one being the birthday of Roald Dahl, the beloved author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. More official days to celebrate chocolate AND eat it throughout the year without the guilt? We’re in! Here in Melbourne, we celebrate with dessert boxes, cheesecake tarts, and chocolate cakes in pure LaManna style.
From ancient Mesoamerican elixirs to French truffles and Italian tortes, chocolate has made life sweeter for over 4000 years. Whether you’re a white chocolate purist, a dark chocolate devotee, or somewhere in between as a milk chocolate lover, World Chocolate Day is the day to raise your fork and celebrate this delicious food in all its glory!
