The butter and creamy vanilla taste of white chocolate is perfect for adding to various treats and recipes. It can be found in most supermarkets as bars, chips, melting wafers (my favorite), in toppings, coffee syrup, and more.
It is frequently used as a decoration because it can be easily colored with food coloring gel. While it’s not the same as “vanilla coating” recipes may use the terms interchangeably.
