Merckens Milk Chocolate Melting Wafers Bulk Bag - Perfect for Dipping, Desserts, and Baking (Dark, 5 Pound)

Merckens, a trusted brand for over a century, offers a line of compound chocolate wafers and rainbow candy melts that have become a leading choice in the retail confectioner, home candy-making, and cake-decorating markets. Founded in 1921 when German immigrant August Merckens Sr. purchased the Reed Chocolate Company in Buffalo, New York, the Merckens chocolate company has since established itself as a prominent name among premium chocolate manufacturers, known for its consistent and superior quality.

Merckens chocolate wafers are ideal for a variety of purposes, including enrobing, dipping, and molding, as well as numerous decorating applications for cakes, baked goods, and a wide range of sweet treats. Unlike couverture chocolate, which contains cocoa butter, Merckens' compound chocolates are made with vegetable oil, making them easy to melt and mold without the need for tempering. This also means there is no risk of blooming with Merckens' products.

The Merckens line of chocolate wafers and candy melts is available in four flavors: milk, white, dark, and super white. Merckens' dark chocolate is particularly versatile, lending itself well to melting, fondue, dipping, baking, and decorating desserts such as chocolate-covered strawberries. The company's creamy chocolates melt into a delicious, smooth mixture, perfect for a range of applications.

Merckens' products are packaged with care and are Kosher certified by The Orthodox Union. The company's bulk packaging options make Merckens' chocolates suitable for both small-scale and larger-scale uses, whether in a home project or a professional bakery setting. As a leading brand in melting chocolates, Merckens has been trusted by premium chocolate retail confectioners throughout North America since its inception.

With its rich history, commitment to quality, and diverse product offerings, Merckens continues to be a go-to choice for chocolate enthusiasts and professionals alike. Whether you're looking to enrobe, dip, mold, or decorate, Merckens' compound chocolates provide the perfect solution, delivering consistent performance and exceptional taste.
