White chocolate: is a confection of sugar, cocoa butter, and milk solids. Unlike chocolate, white chocolate contains neither chocolate liquor nor cocoa solids. Because white chocolate contains neither cocoa solids nor chocolate liquor (cocoa mass), it does not meet the standard to be marketed as chocolate in many countries.
White chocolate is actually not technically "chocolate", as it contains no cocoa powder. Instead, white chocolate is a conbination of cocoa oil, milk, cream, sugar, eggs, and milk solids / milk fats.
All chocolate is made up of the same ingredients, cocoa mass, cocoa butter and the extra milk and sweetener. The difference is that white chocolate contains very little or no cocoa liquor at all, where as dark chocolate contains a lot. Cocoa liquor is the mixture of cocoa oil and ground cocoa seeds.

Not necessarily. White Chocolate is made by using cocoa butter but not the cocoa solids. There is milk in it, but more sugar is added to make up the bulk. Dark chocolate can be either milk chocolate (chocolate made with milk, but with cocoa solids as well as cocoa butter) or plain chcocolate (chocolate made with cocoa solids and cocoa butter but without milk). If you add white chocolate to milk chocolate then the result will be a very sweet milk chocolate. If you add white chocolate to plain chocolate, the result will be a milk chocolate
No. Chocolate is white or brown based on its cocoa content. The more cocoa, the darker the chocolate.More information:Most white chocolate sold in the supermarket is a white chocolate confection, not real white chocolate.

No. White chocolate is, actually, the unhealthiest chocolate there is as it is almost all fats, milk, and sugar and contains no actual cocoa in it.
White chocolate contians only cocoa butter, fats, milk, sugar, milk solids / milk fats, and simialr ingredients. It contains no actual cocoa or cocoa powder, so it cannot technically be called chocolate.
Dark chocolate is just the cocoa powder with few other ingredients. Milk chocolate has more milk and some cocoa butter to make it more milky, hence the name. White chocolate is made out of just cocoa butter, hence its white appearance. :-D
