WHAT'S COOKING

 
 
 
Published Jan. 20, 1994|Updated Oct. 6, 2005

WHAT is the white on chocolate, and is it still OK to use?

The white surface streaks and blotches (called bloom) will appear on chocolate when it is stored at too warm a temperature and the cocoa butter rises to the surface. The chocolate is usable but may have an altered and drier character. Chocolate should be well-wrapped and stored in a cool dry place (60-70 degrees).
