American Chocolate Cookie with White Chocolate
Two kinds of chocolate in one cookie: a dark cocoa base and large white chocolate chips. Crunchy, with a nutty aroma and a distinct contrast of flavors.
What it tastes like
The base has a rich chocolate flavor with a hint of cocoa bitterness. The white chocolate chips add a thick, creamy sweetness that stands out especially vividly against the dark background. The nutty aroma adds depth.
When to Enjoy It
With coffee, as a snack, for kids, during office breaks, in gift sets, or at a buffet. It looks great in a set with light-colored cookies—thanks to the color contrast.
Size and Weight
Sold individually; one cookie weighs approximately 40 g. Price: 40 UAH.

White Chocolate: The Story of a Product That Isn’t Quite Chocolate
The white specks in these cookies are the product with the most controversial status in the entire confectionery world.
Switzerland, 1930s
White chocolate was first produced in Switzerland in the 1930s. The impetus was a purely practical problem: after producing regular chocolate and milk mixtures, there was a surplus of cocoa butter, and a use for it had to be found. The cocoa butter was mixed with powdered milk and sugar—the result was a white, sweet product.
Why It’s Not Chocolate
Technically, white chocolate does not contain cocoa solids—that is, the cocoa beans themselves, which provide the color, bitterness, and chocolate flavor. It contains only cocoa butter, the fatty part of the bean. Because of this, there have been long-standing debates in a number of countries over whether it should be called chocolate; in the U.S., an official standard for it wasn’t established until 2002.
Why It Pairs Well with Dark Chocolate
It is precisely because it lacks cocoa mass that white chocolate has no bitterness—only the sweetness and richness of milk. Against a dark cocoa base, it provides maximum contrast: the same chips in light-colored cookies would have a much milder effect.
