A Brief History:
Origination: Today was National Candy Day, which celebrated the origin of candy. People celebrate every day with candy, and special occasions like anniversaries, birthdays and a great day, to go alongside. The history of candy and its creation can be traced to B.C. ancient times, from the Ancient Egyptians for cult purposes. In ancient times, Egyptians, Arabs, and Chinese made candies with fruits and nuts that caramelized with honey. The two oldest candy types are licorice and ginger. The historical roots of licorice are found in the early years of man’s appearance.
More Recent Evolution: The past millennium has had candy evolve out of the ancient heritage, but cam around within the past few centuries
The Last Few Centuries: In the last few centuries, candy has evolved into an industry that involves employment opportunities, the building of factories, holidays based off the industry, and a lot of sweet things! Unfortunately it does keep dentists in business as well, as because on the downside, the sugar is a direct decay factor to tooth enamel and also a breeding =ground for bacteria that eventually causes plaque and makes the teeth come from the whiteness that teeth need to be considered “brilliant”.
More Recently: Today, candy still presents its taste in many forms, including hard and soft candy, powders, gums, and also of course chocolate and cocoa. Candy is is still the very delicious dessert that it has always attained from back in the old days every year. Every year, countless companies come out with a new variation, and present companies introduce different renditions and even “limited edition” variations of the recipes used to produce candy and confectionary products. More and more renditions and recipes have arisen in more recent years.
Celebrated: November 4th every year!
