White chocolate appeared in the early 20th century when the Swiss company Nestlé began producing it on a commercial scale. Unlike dark or milk chocolate, it does not contain cocoa powder and is made from cocoa butter, sugar, and dairy ingredients.

On this day, candy lovers and confectioners celebrate white chocolate in many different forms:
* tastings of white chocolate bars and desserts;
* baking cakes, pastries, and candies;
* special promotions in cafes and confectioneries;
* sharing recipes and dessert ideas on culinary blogs.
