where can I buy white chocolate coco

White Chocolate White chocolate originates from the cocoa
(cacao) plant, but it is not 'chocolate.' According to the
FDA, to be called 'chocolate' a product must contain chocolate
liquor, which is what gives it the biter intense chocolate
flavor (and color) to dark and milk chocolates.

White chocolate contains cocoa butter, milk solids, sugar,
lecithin and flavorings (usually including vanilla). Cocoa
butter is the fat from cocoa beans, extracted from the cocoa
beans during the process of making chocolate and cocoa powder.
Cocoa butter has very little 'chocolate' flavor.

Cocoa butter is one of the ingredients used to make real
chocolate, it is gives chocolate the ability to remain solid
at room temperature, yet melt easily in the mouth.

Cocoa butter is one of the most stable fats known,
containing natural antioxidants that prevent rancidity and
give it a storage life of 2 to 5 years. It is used for its
smooth texture in foods (including chocolate) and in
cosmetics and soaps.

Such a thing exists?

White "chocolate" (which, BTW, the FDA does not recognize as
real chocolate)is made of cocoa butter, milk, and sugar.

How much milk and sugar do you think would go into white choc?
Is that mainly what makes it white

[markd]

It is white because the brown/redish cocoa has been removed
leaving the cocoa butter.

Actually all the ingredients (milk, sugar, cocoa butter) are
whitish in color. Pure cocoa butter has a kind of golden white
color and a delicious chocolate-like odor, and it melts at
body temperature, although it stays solid at room temperature
(in a cool room).

White from milk, sugar, and cocoa butter (yellow-white). I'm
not a chocolatier or chocolate maker, so I'm afraid I don't
know the amount of each ingredient.
