At least five reasons why chocolate cherries deserve a memorable holiday
In the United States, chocolate-covered cherries are typically considered winter candy.
One reason for this seasonal character is that cherries are initially boiled after picking and are only covered in chocolate during the cold season. So, although you can now buy industrially produced products, it is healthier to make them yourself.
Who Invented Chocolate-Covered Cherries?
The invention of chocolate-covered cherries as candy dates back to 18th-century England. This is the first time we see cherries covered in chocolate along with liqueur or brandy. The first chocolate-covered cherries appeared in the United States much later.
Unlike the British mainland, the non-alcoholic version is much more prevalent in the US. Cherry sherbet is used instead of cherry liqueur.
Chocolate-covered cherries are more delicious than you might imagine. If you don't like this dessert, you can alternatively celebrate International Cherry Kernel Spitting Day on the first Saturday of July.
