white chocolate
Pale cocoa confection
White chocolate is a confection made from cocoa butter, sugar, and milk solids—but no cocoa solids, which give regular chocolate its brown color and characteristic flavor.
Purists argue it isn't true chocolate at all, since it lacks the cocoa that defines the category.
The taste is sweet and creamy rather than bitter: I prefer white chocolate to dark.
