Expert Tips

White chocolate isn't true chocolate; it contains no chocolate liquor, the essence of chocolate flavor and color. Instead, white chocolate gets its mellow flavor from vanilla. White chocolate does contain cocoa butter, which is derived from cocoa beans. Choose high quality white chocolate, that which lists cocoa butter as the first or second ingredient.
