Chocolate Cake Day
When is Chocolate Cake Day? This holiday is always observed on January 27
Chocolate Cake Day is today. This January 27 holiday is a chocolate lovers delight, and a day to eat cake. Why this a day to “bake your chocolate cake….and eat it, too!”
On this day, a white or yellow cake will not do. Nor, will part chocolate, part white suffice. It must be chocolate, all chocolate. You can make milk chocolate, dark chocolate, fudge, or any other type of chocolate. And, there’s only one flavor of frosting that’s acceptable to use today.
In our original research on this day in the early 200s, the only reference to Chocolate Day on the Internet was from Ecard and calendar websites. This might lead you to conclude that this as a day for (and by) the Ecard companies. But, we know better. This day is for you, and all of us chocolate lovers.
There are three objectives for today: To bake a chocolate cake. To decorate a one. And, to eat a piece or two. Of course, if you are too busy to bake or decorate a cake, then just eating a chocolate cake will certainly do!
