Place lard in a clay pot and heat until it melts. Fry onion, garlic, güero chiles, and Habanero chiles over medium-high heat. Add plantain, apple, and raisins and brown. Remove and set aside. Using the same clay pot over medium-low heat, toast seeds (pine nuts, pumpkin seeds, almonds, and white sesame seeds) slightly. Return browned ingredients and add chicken broth, spices (anise, cilantro, nutmeg, cinnamon stick, and pepper), and toasted bread. Season with salt. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour blended mixture into a pot. Cook over medium-low heat. Add white chocolate tablets and incorporate. Adjust seasoning and cook for 20 more minutes. Place chicken thighs and drumsticks in a platter. Spoon over mole blanco. Garnish traditional mole blanco with chocolate-covered coconut slices and white flower petals.
