Chocolate Day ; Chocolate, being a symbol of sweetness and love

By Akshya Rout

JAJPUR, FEB 9 : Chocolate Day, which falls on February 9, marks the third day of celebrating love in Valentine’s week. Chocolate, being a symbol of sweetness and love, is often used as a love language to express affection.

 The tradition of celebrating Chocolate Day dates back to 1840 when Valentine’s Day began gaining popularity and became a part of this love-filled week. Many people aim to make this week special for their loved ones by organising beautiful dates and bringing joy through simple gestures.

Valentine’s Day originated as a Christian feast day to honour Saint Valentine and other Christian saints. However, while it is widely celebrated and considered culturally significant in many countries, it is true that Valentine’s Day is not recognised as a public holiday in most places.

The tradition of exchanging chocolates on Valentine’s Day became popular during the Victorian era, and it became a significant part of the gifts exchanged by men and women in love. Richard Cadbury, an English chocolatier, played a role in popularising this tradition by introducing the heart-shaped chocolate box for Valentine’s Day in the mid-19th century.

 Chocolate Day holds a special place in people’s hearts, not just for its sweetness, but for the richness of cocoa. On this day, couples express their love by exchanging boxes of chocolates, symbolising the wish for their bond to be as sweet as the chocolates shared. Beyond its taste, chocolate has the magical ability to melt hearts and strengthen connections. Chocolate Day marks the beginning of Valentine’s week on a delightful note.
