Merckens white is a delicious, smooth and creamy vanilla flavored confectionary candy coating with no waxy taste. 2. White and colored confectionery candy coatings combine sugar, milk and vegetable oil. It is easy to melt and requires no tempering. If a thinner coating is desired, paramount crystals may be added. If adding flavors or colors, use a concentrated flavor or oil-based flavor. 3. Chocolate may melt in shipping if ordering during warmer temperatures. If it melts during shipping, it can be remelted and there will be little change in the hardened/finished chocolate. Review: Great Quality Melting Chocolate - Great quality coating chocolate.

If you attempt to use a water based color (think dyes used for your Easter eggs) it will seize the chocolate and render it useless for molding or dipping. Wilton sells oil based colors for this purpose. **Q: Can I use this for dipping cherries, and what is the difference between coating and dipping ?** A: Yes you absolutely can. Merckens chocolate has been used by my candy-making family for generations. I highly recommend it. It is a true high-quality, smooth melting, non gritty chocolate wafer for dipping and molds. It does not need tempering. You can remedy if you need to soften it up as it cools without issue. **Q: Can you freeze this** A: One should never freeze chocolate. It gets a coating on it when frozen and loses a bit of its flavour. I make chocolates with this brand and they have never disappointed. **Q: What are the ingredients?** A: Ingredients:Sugar, Partially hydrogenated Vegetable oilPalm kernel, cottonseed oils. . Nonfat dry milk, cocoa, milk,glyceryl, , lactid esters of fatty acids, soy lecithin add- - ed as an emulsifier, and salt May contain Yellow 5 lake, Blue 1 lake, Yellow 6Lake .
