We also opted NOT to bypass NATIONAL TODAY’s Chocolate Cupcake Day!

This was number one, the first and the foremost, NATIONAL TODAY Holiday for October the 18th.

National Chocolate Cupcake Day is every year on October 18.

Chocolate cupcakes made their first written appearance in what was also the first cookbook to be penned by an American Amelia Simmons. In 1796, she simply titled her book American Cookery, and featured novel, individual-sized cakes.

But these delicious delicacies weren’t called cupcakes until about 1828, when Eliza Leslie first coined the phrase in her cookbook.

Chocolate cures all!!

Countless research has been conducted on the health benefits of chocolate. Over the years, chocolate has been thought to be associated with lower risk of heart disease, improved mental performance, and lower risk of stroke. Oh yeah, and shall we remind you that chocolate is also just plain delicious?
