Milk chocolate is a solid chocolate confectionery containing cocoa, sugar and milk. Milk chocolate is made from dark chocolate that has a low cocoa solid content and higher sugar content, plus a milk product – this could be boiled milk, milk powder or condensed milk. Different varieties of milk product result in varying notes of caramel in the chocolate. Milk chocolate is lighter and sweeter in flavour than dark, and is softer in texture. Now, more milk chocolates are made with a higher cocoa solid content, meaning they're often more chocolatey and less sweet.
