History of National Chocolate Pudding Day
The history of National Chocolate Pudding Day is not clear. In the 17th century, these puddings were moist cakes and were served after dinner. In the mid-19th century, an English chemist named Alfred Bird developed an egg-free custard powder and made it easy for everyone to make the delicious pudding which later became popular all around the world. Earlier, according to the 1903 edition of Mary Harris Frazer’s Kentucky Receipt Book and the 1918 edition of Fannie Farmer’s Boston Cooking-School Cook Book, chocolate pudding was made using both eggs and flour and was called chocolate custard, and instead, starch is used to make chocolate pudding.
