White streaks on chocolate are usually called bloom. The treat may look tired, but it is often still safe to eat. The texture and shine are what suffer.
Fat bloom happens when cocoa butter separates and rises to the surface. Sugar bloom happens when moisture dissolves sugar and leaves crystals behind as it dries.
For the next batch, keep storage temperatures steady, avoid humid rooms, and let refrigerated treats come back toward room temperature before opening the container.
