Yes, white spots on chocolate can indeed indicate it’s gone bad. Sometimes, these spots appear due to chocolate being exposed to fluctuating temperatures, leading to fat or sugar bloom, making it less appealing but usually safe to eat. However, if the chocolate shows signs of mold, like fuzzy or discolored patches, it’s better to discard it. Mold can be harmful. Always store chocolate in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its quality. Personally, I’ve encountered this with improperly stored chocolate, resulting in changes in its texture and appearance. So, check it closely before indulging.
