Once again, if you are expecting homemade white chocolate to be as silky smooth as storebought, you will be disappointed, so expect it to be a little gritty/grainy unless you have a melanger. But you can reduce that grittiness by grinding that milk powder and sugar into as fine a powder as possible.Cocoa solids are the substance remaining after cocoa butter is extracted from cacao beans. In other words, they are the nonfat component of the cacao bean.

Purpose of Sugar: Sugar does more than just sweeten the chocolate; it balances the natural bitterness of the cocoa bean. The intensity of the cocoa flavour and the origin of the bean can determine the required sugar content. It’s a delicate balance to strike, ensuring the sugar neither overpowers nor is overpowered by the cocoa. Well, it’s the edible fat (basically like the vegetable oil) from the cocoa bean rather than the ‘solids’, which are what is needed to define a ‘chocolate’ product.

Sweetener– use your favorite powdered sugar: coconut sugar, cane sugar, monk fruit powder, etc. If you only have granulated sugar, you can make your own powdered sugar. You can also use a sugar-free alternative such as powdered erythritol. AVOID liquid sweetener though, like maple, which can cause the chocolate to seize.
