A: Over 100 years ago, it was discovered that cocoa
butter and chocolate liqueur could be separated from the processed
cocoa bean, giving us even more ways to enjoy chocolate. There
are three basic types of chocolate:
Dark
chocolate is comprised of cocoa liqueur, cocoa butter
and sugar.
Milk chocolate adds milk and uses less liqueur than the
dark chocolate.
White chocolate is not truly chocolate, but a confection
created out of cocoa butter and sugar. Cocoa
powder used in baking is chocolate liqueur from which the
butter has been extracted, allowed to harden and then ground.
