Although it tastes, smells, and looks like chocolate, it does not solidify, even at room temperature. The paste usually contains
cocoa and
vegetable or
palm oil, and is also likely to contain
milk,
sugar and additional flavors.[5][6] Some varieties include
nuts (e.g., ground
hazelnuts) or
honey.[7][8] Chocolate spread is normally sold in glass
jars or plastic tubs.[9][10]
