Does white chocolate have caffeine?
Donna B., Union, New Jersey No because white chocolate is made of cocoa butter and corn syrup; it does not contain any cocoa powder, where all the chocolate flavor and “caffeine” resides. I agree with you that carob, which is used as a chocolate substitute in “health foods” has no relationship to chocolate flavor and basically has no taste. And as to why they can’t make decaffeinated chocolate? I think the cost of decaffeinating it is not worth it; there probably is not enough of a market demand. I also do not know really how much caffeine is in an ounce of chocolate; it probably is not enough to disturb most people.
