Milk chocolate is a cocoa-based confection blended with sugar and milk solids, commonly sold as bars, chips, or wafers. It tastes creamy with a caramel-like sweetness and a soft melt; it tempers to a gentle snap and liquefies smoothly for coatings, ganache, sauces, and baking mixes.
It developed in Switzerland in the late 19th century with the use of dried or condensed milk in chocolate-making and spread through Europe and North America. Modern production refines cocoa liquor with sugar and milk solids in a conche before tempering for shelf-stable bars and baking formats.
