Print / PDFWhat is associated with the colour orange (and increasingly black, purple, and even green), celebrated on 31st October, emerged out of “guising”, “mumming”, and “souling”, is second only to Christmas as a commercial holiday ($6bn spent in the US alone), and one where over 20% of millennials are now dressing up pets in costumes?
The answer is, of course; Halloween!
We know Halloween isn’t for a few weeks, but given there’s some Royal Mail strike action planned soon here in the UK, we encourage you to plan ahead; to make sure you order in plenty of time before the big spooky day!
Try as we might; it’s not easy to find links between craft chocolate and Halloween. Nonetheless, as a treat we’ve assembled two great gift boxes; sets of bars that are coloured, orange, black or purple.
Even though we’ve not found links between craft chocolate and Halloween, we’ve had some fun researching its history and traditions for you to contemplate as you savour these bars.
- Why is Halloween associated with the colours orange, black and purple?
- When and where did the word “Halloween” come from?
- Why do we “trick or treat” on Halloween?
Any which way, we hope you enjoy our range of Halloween inspired craft chocolate treats!
