The temps keep going up here in Indiana where The Chocolate Cult is headquartered but that doesn't stop us from enjoying and appreciating Chocolate. While you may have to pay extra to order chocolate online during this hot months you should check out your local shops and stores for deals and new varieties. Why? First of all -- CHOCOLATE, second of all -- Holidays!
August 2 = National Ice Cream Sandwich Day (we'll have a Saturday Sacrament for this one including a link to the very simple recipe)
August 4 = National Chocolate Chip Day; National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day
August 5 = National Waffle Day (see the 24th for a related holiday) -- Check out an older recipe idea for Simple Chocolate Waffles
August 6, 1826 = Birthday of Joseph Storrs Fry II who took over his grandfather’s thriving chocolate business in England. (mostly because I couldn’t find an accurate birthday for the chocolate genius that was Joseph Storrs Fry)

August 10th is also the birthday of Henri Nestlé, German Confection and founder of the Nestlé corporation along with Daniel Peter who created the Milk Chocolate bar using Nestlé expertise with condensed milk
