National Sweetest Day

One of the things I love about content writing is the vast amount of knowledge you can gain. For example, did you know there is a holiday designated as National Sweetest Day? It is typically celebrated on the third Saturday in October. Primarily observed in the Midwestern United States and parts of the Northeastern US, there is a part of northern Florida that also acknowledges this day.  It is a day to share romantic deeds or expressions. There are a total of 12 states that have an observance of National Sweetest Day. Those states are Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, West Virginia and parts of New York, Pennsylvania and Florida.

While Sweetest Day is a wonderful time to show affection for others, it is also a great time for companies that make candy, cards and floral arrangements. Similar to Valentine’s Day, Sweetest Day is associated with flowers, plants and heart- shaped boxes of candy. Our professional and talented floral designers at Penny’s By Plaza Flowers will amaze you with an arrangement of flowers or a gift basket of sweet treats!

In 1916, the inception of Sweetest Day was created as an off shoot to Candy Day. Sometimes we need to be reminded of the need to show friends, sweethearts and perhaps those less fortunate that we care about them. In a world of hustle and bustle, small gestures of kindness can mean so much to those around us. Penny’s By Plaza Flowers believes in this concept. Since our founding in 1983 as Plaza Flowers, we have been delighting our customers with excellent products. If sending a basket or box of sweet treats is what you desire for National Sweetest Day, we have that perfect gift!
