HAPPY SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 | NATIONAL ICE CREAM CONE DAY | NATIONAL WHITE CHOCOLATE DAY - In the United States, ice cream cones first became popular in the late 1800s. Confectioners turned the first cones by hand. The ice cream cone made its debut at the World’s Fair in St. Louis in 1904. In 1912, an inventor from Oregon obtained a patent for a machine to make them. He sold his company to Nabisco in 1928, and they still make ice cream cones today. Why does everyone invite ice cream to the party? It’s cool.
Since white chocolate does not contain cocoa solids, it is not chocolate in the strictest sense. During the process of manufacturing chocolate, the dark-colored solids of the cocoa bean separates from the fatty content. But unlike milk or dark chocolate, the solids are not reincorporated. As a result, white chocolate also does not contain as much caffeine or antioxidants as its darker counterparts.
What do you call a lamb covered in chocolate? A candy baaa.
