National Chocolate Candy Day

December 28th is National Chocolate Candy Day in the United States.

Chocolate may not always be considered to be a candy (or sweet) but it is, as the term can be used to describe any type of sweet confection - even bittersweet chocolate.

There are so many different types of chocolate candies that they seem to be in an entire category by themselves - and, in fact, can be treated that way. This definition includes items such as chocolate bars (of whichever of the many types) and truffles, but excludes white chocolate (as this is not considered to be true chocolate). It can include all the rather vague items too which are covered in chocolate, which can mean anything that is dipped in chocolate, or uses it.

The most popular types of chocolate candies are probably the chocolate candy bars, which come wrapped and can include just about anything. Boxes of chocolates too are popular, especially at this time of the year.
