White Chocolates


White chocolate gets its name from the cocoa butter it contains, but does not contain chocolate liquor or any other cocoa products.
As a result, it has no pronounced chocolate taste, but commonly tastes like vanilla or other added flavorings.
By law, white chocolate must contain a minimum 20% cocoa butter, 14% milk solids, and a maximum of 55% sugar.
There are some “white chocolate” products available that contain vegetable fats instead of cocoa butter—these should be avoided from a taste standpoint,
as they contain no cocoa products at all,
and are not technically white chocolate.
