If you’ve eaten more chocolate during quarantine, you’re not alone. Trust me.
The National Confectioners Association announced a spike in demand for chocolate during the COVID-19 crisis. Chocolate sales surpassed all other candy from March through August 2020.
While the overall candy market grew by 3.8 percent, non-premium chocolate expanded by 5.5 percent and premium chocolate sales rose by 12.5 percent.
New data shows sales of chocolate and candy have increased during the pandemic as people across the country look for ways to add a little bit of joy to what has been a very serious and uncertain time.
