Chocolate comes often in three different colours, these colours are dark, white and milk chocolate. Milk chocolate is shall contain at least 30 % cacao. It also contains fresh milk or skim milk powder. Its more common with the kids because it has a sweet taste if you compare with the dark chocolate. The first that started mass produce milk chocolate was the swiss. White Chocolate is not actually made by Cacao powder that the others are, its made by Cacao butter. It also contains Sugar and milk powder. Very often is the white chocolate Flavoured with vanilla taste because its not made with so high quality. Dark chocolate can contain up to 99% cacao, but it very hard to get it to stay in shape, because it need an amount of fat to not fall apart.
