Dark Chocolate Candy Coating Melts

I use chocolate candy coating all the time, and one of my favorite brands is Merckens. Candy coating is a useful shortcut when you don’t want to temper chocolate for candy making, so I always keep a big bag on hand in the kitchen. Candy coating hardens quickly and produces shiny chocolate-covered candies that have a satisfying snap. Some varieties are thick and gloopy when they’re melted, but Merckens always has a texture that’s not too thick and not too thin–perfect for dipping chocolates and molding candies!
