Q: I understand your answer about gluten, mine is more specific. Is the soy you use gluten free?
submitted by Marie - 7 months ago
A: We understand that gluten sensitivity is a concern for many, and we want to ensure you have the best experience with our chocolates. While some of our premium chocolate products do contain gluten, either as a cereal ingredient or barley component, we also offer a selection of chocolates without the gluten-containing ingredients, making them a wonderful option for those with dietary restrictions.
For your convenience, ingredient listings are available on our website. However, we always recommend checking the packaging for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Certifying requires verifying gluten levels through laboratory testing (typically below 20 ppm). We do not test for gluten in our facility.
Guests appreciate the versatility and ease of use of these melting wafers, making them ideal for a variety of treats like chocolate-covered strawberries, pretzels, and cake pops. The smooth melting process and rich flavor enhance the overall experience, allowing for creative culinary projects. However, some guests have expressed concerns about the product's consistency and quality, particularly with white chocolate options. Overall, these wafers are a popular choice for both casual and serious bakers.

Cocoa is the third to last ingredient...
Tastes terrible and low quality and the main ingredients are sugar and vegetable oil…very disappointing.

Disapointed in delivery
The package was left outside in the direct sunlight so the content was all melted together inside the bag.

Don’t order for home shipping. My bag came completely ruined. It had melted and hardened into a big blob that was so hard to use.

Too thin texture for dipping
Flavor is good, the consistency is way too think to dip pretzels in! White chocolate bark is WAY better! Not with the price for this chocolate.

Its not even real chocolate
I realized after purchasing this isn’t even chocolate. It’s “chocolate flavored wafers”. Can’t believe Ghirardelli would even make something that can’t even be legally considered actual chocolate for melting. Pass.

Never showed up but they said it did
Took forever and then they said they delivered it but never did. Was super overpriced to begin with but I needed it for something. So I paid more for the convenience. Now I have to wait even longer for a replacement and hope that one actually shows up.

Just opened the target bag, and yes I received my chocolate melts, but I ordered and paid for the 16 oz bags and I received the 10 oz bags instead. Very unhappy. Note to self, check bag before leaving.

Taste artificial
These taste terrible. They taste artificial. The only good thing is that they melt well in the microwave. Don’t waste your money This company used to have exceptionally good chocolate products. What happened?

Perfect for melting but pretty sweet for dark chocolate, Make a couple chocolate bars with these, good amount for the price but if youre looking for dark chocolate thats not too sweet maybe opt for something else

Sweet sweet chocolate
This chocolate is very easy to make. It tastes great with strawberries, pretzels, and marshmallows; however, it is quite sweet. If you prefer a less sweet flavor, consider using dark chocolate. I used the stovetop method and had no problem. I used a stainless steel bowl over a pot because I don't have a double boiler. Used the whole bag, made a mini bag of pretzels and 16 strawberries 🍓, and even had a bit left over; I could have most likely coated another two. The only reason for the four star is that it’s pretty pricey for such a small bag.
