Does cocoa butter contain chocolate?!?!


Question: Does cocoa butter contain chocolate!?!!?
I gave up chocolate recently for my health and my mother bought me Tofutti Cuties, which are chocolate flavored on the outside!.

I'm not sure if it's chocolate or carob!?! It says carob on the label as well, help please!Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
cocoa butter IS chocolate!. Chocolate comes from cocoa trees!.

"Cocoa butter, also called theobroma oil, is the pale-yellow, pure edible vegetable fat of the cacao bean!. It is the substance used to make solid chocolate bars!. It is mixed with varying amounts of cocoa powder to produce solid pieces of chocolate!. Cocoa butter is extracted from the cacao beans and can be used to make chocolate, pharmaceuticals, ointments, and toiletries!.[1] Cocoa butter has a mild chocolate flavor and aroma!.

During processing of the cacao bean, cocoa solids and cocoa butter are separated out at an early stage!. The two are recombined in the manufacture of regular (brown) chocolate bars!. The confection known as white chocolate contains cocoa butter but not cocoa powder!."

EDIT: Actually, based on the above info, I don't know what the answer is!. I don't know if it's considered choclate without the cocoa powder! Chocolate CONTAINS cocoa butter, but cocoa butter without cocoa powder - such as white chocolate - does that contain any of the caffeine and chocolate properties!? I don't think so! SO I think it might be ok for you to eat it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
