Most "white chocolate" today are actually vanilla flavored summer coating. Summer coating are usually sold as discs of "white chocolate".Jimmy Snyder said:My father's parents lived in VT and my mother's in NH. I lived in NJ. When I was a child, before the interstate highway system, it took two days to get to my grandparents' place. We would stop along the way at some cheap motel, stay the night and finish up the next day. We would stop at Hebert's candy shop along the way too. My father loved to get ribbon candy, a kind of hard candy shaped into thin wavy ribbons. One year I got a piece of white chocolate on a stick like a lollypop. That was my first taste of it and I thought it was yummy. I never saw white chocolate again until I was already an adult. I thought that only Hebert's had it. I still think it's yummy, smoother than milk chocolate, and full of warm memories too.
A lot of people like the vanilla candies. I like them in Pepperidge farms white chocolate macadamia nut cookies.
