National Peanut Cluster Day
National Peanut Cluster Day is March 8th, and it is on March 8th. Melted chocolate mixed with peanuts makes a delectable and salty snack combo!!
Peanut clusters did not exist before two things had to happen for peanut clusters to even exist. First, a process had to be invented for the cocoa bean to be processed and transformed into what we know as chocolate. t.b. Until about the late 1890s, the process wasn't widely used until about the late 1890s, and just about the same time as the second extraordinary thing happened; agriculture discovered a way to grow the peanut and bring it to the public with steel tools and steam power.
The confectioneries didn't take long to introduce the now readily available peanuts to melted chocolate. And now, the sheer simplicity of the salty peanuts added to sweetened chocolate is a delectable temptation few can resist, even today. Candy makers find them to be a hit addition to cookie tins or other holiday baskets.. Bakers can quickly round out any cookie or bar tray with their simplicity. They also quickly satisfy a snack craving without much effort at all.
