This is nothing, you should have seen me in my salad days...when I was green

White chocolate is produced by extracting the cocoa butter during the cocoa
bean processing, and mixing it with sugar and, often times, vanilla and milk.
Most commercial brands also include things like guar gum or carageenan, milk
solids, and any other combination of what I term "impurities". The white
chocolate I buy is from Tiffany's, and it is one of the better ones, AFAIC.
It does not contain vanilla, nor any of the other additives (except for milk
and sugar). It is also $7.25 a pound!! So, naturally, I use it only for the
very special guests...
