Unleash Your Inner Chocoholic This World Chocolate Day Within Sunway City Kuala Lumpur!
Dear dessert enthusiasts, did you know that World Chocolate Day falls on 7 July every year?
Yes, you read that right! For one day a year, we stand together in guilt-free appreciation of all things cacao!
Fun fact: World Chocolate Day commemorates the introduction of chocolate to Europe in 1550. Prior to its days as a crowd-puller, access to cacao beans was limited to its specific regions of origin – southern North America and Central America, up till its discovery by foreign explorers who then introduced it to the world. From then on, delicious varieties of cocoa-based dishes were invented all over the globe.
In honour of this amazing discovery that some might not be able to live without today (not exaggerated), World Chocolate Day was announced worldwide.
Contrary to popular beliefs, chocolate does not merit its bad rep today. In fact, it carries antibacterial properties as eating pure cocoa has been shown to prevent tooth decay.

Besides, the mere scent of chocolate does wonders by signalling our brains to relax – perhaps a cue for us to build a chocolate stash at our workplace. A study conducted also revealed that chocolate scents diffused in bookstores effectively resulted in an increase in sales, especially in the romance genre! How lovely!
