Why does Starbucks call chocolate mocha?
If you're like most people, when you visit Starbucks, you want to order a tall, caramel, white chocolate mocha frappuccino.
But there's one problem the mocha is moochah instead of mocha.
Who was responsible for that mistake? Starbucks says it's not the company's fault, but rather a design error made years ago. So why not just admit that someone at Starbucks didn't read the ingredients list for the mocha (it's milk and sugar). Whoops.
What exactly is the difference between a mocha and a coffee? The name mocha is derived from the Arabic word mohcha, meaning grind or grinding, which was used to describe the process of mixing cocoa powder with hot water. There are three basic types of mochas: mocha, cafe mocha and coffee mocha. Caf mocha is a variation of the traditional mocha and contains espresso and steamed milk. Coffee mocha is a blend of regular coffee and the traditional mocha. The original mocha is made from a latte macchiato, or coffee stain, mixed with sugar. That's where the company got the idea for their signature drink with mocha flavour, but instead of steamed milk, you get whipped cream. Starbucks calls its new drink a Chocolate Mochaccino Frappuccino in the USA and Canada, while it's just a White Chocolate Mochaccino in New Zealand and Australia. (Why not just give it a Latin American name?) So if you drink the regular mocha you're drinking a latte macchiato, but if you drink the white chocolate mochaccino, you're actually having a regular mochaccino? Starbucks says the new drink is made just as the original with a splash of white chocolate mocha syrup on top, instead of sugar.
Is mocha chocolate or coffee flavor?
I am wanting to make chocolate and coffee (or something close enough) cake with cocoa powder and a mocha flavor. I have never made chocolate and coffee and do not know how to go about it. Also, do I need a new cake mix? I would appreciate any advice or tips.
I would think that you might be able to substitute for your favorite chocolate/coffee Cake recipe (either an old tried and true from a box, or another type of cake you like as is) one that is "mocha-y". For example, in a white cake, you might use a MOST GORGEOUS CAKE BY MIMI. IT IS CHOCOLATE BUT IT SAYS RIGHT ON THE PICTURE THAT ITS A MOCHA CAKE! Or you could do a brownie type cake using a Brownie mix, it will change the consistency of the cake a little but that isn't necessarily bad (depending on your preference). You might also consider using more than just a pinch of the flavorings in the recipe, rather than just throwing a packet of powder into the cake. Also, you should keep in mind that if the cake is very mocha-y, it might overpower a small amount of chocolate and you might want to make it less chocolaty. Good luck!

Does mocha count as chocolate?
I'm starting a project with some collaborators to write an application that takes data from a website and compresses it into a binary file.
The data will be in the form of a javascript object that contains a map with strings as keys and objects as values. The strings will be urls, and the objects will be json representations of the data.
I was trying to come up with a name for the project, and I came up with ChocolateJS. It seems like a nice name, but I don't know if it's already being used for something. And it doesn't have a great domain name. The name ChocolateJS seems a little bit confusing because it seems like I'm referring to the javascript language, and I want to refer to the application.
But what name should I use? I was thinking of MochaJS or MaybeJS. But I've heard people say that the term "chocolate" is a little sexist. What would you call this thing?

I personally think that the problem with chocolate is that it is more of a description than a name. A name should be a noun (or an adjective), that tells us what something is without us having to think about it.
If you're looking for a name that might be hard to come by, then I'd say ChocolateJS would be a good start. I don't think it's necessarily a bad name, and the domain name is available (although I'm not sure if it's available for sale).
But that's a subjective opinion. I think MochaJS is a good name. I'd certainly try and keep the name simple and short, but I think a name that is somewhat descriptive is better than one that is too short or too complex.
Do you mean that you're going to be using some Javascript library that does this? Or that you're going to write the library yourself? If you're just going to be using a library, then I think that ChocolateJS is a good name. If you're going to write the library yourself, then I think that MochaJS is a better name. A better name would be "Javascript compression library". And don't forget to mention in the name that you're open-source.
