melting chocolate wafers

Melting wafers are usually sold as chips, discs or small pieces. Some products are marketed as "Ready to Use" specifically for melting and coating, while others are labeled "Ready to Eat" for snacking, depending on the item.

Many melting wafers are formulated to melt smoothly and evenly for coatings and dipping, often requiring little or no thinning and producing consistent coverage for treats.

Some melting wafers are sold in resealable pouches or bags (for example 17.6 oz resealable bags) to help keep candy melts fresh between uses.

Many melting wafers are described as requiring no tempering, and often need little or no thinning for typical home use.

Customer reviews commonly praise consistent melting performance—melting smoothly and quickly for dipping and coating—and note that the product is generally easy and fast to use.
