Discolored chocolate might still be safe to eat, but the quality might be affected. White spots or a change in color often occur due to temperature fluctuations or improper storage. While it may not look as appealing, it’s usually safe. Yet, taste and texture could be different. If it smells okay and the taste isn’t off, it’s likely alright. In my experience, the white film or change in color happens when chocolate undergoes temperature changes, but I’ve found it safe to consume. However, for the best flavor and texture, fresher chocolate is preferable.
