About CHOCOLATE CANDY COATING, CHOCOLATE
Great Value Chocolate Candy Coating is a compound confectionery wafer product intended for melting and use as a dipping, drizzling, or molding coating in home baking and candy-making applications. Sold under Walmart's Great Value value-tier brand, each 15-gram serving contains 533 calories per 100 grams equivalent, with 26.67 grams of fat, 66.67 grams of carbohydrates, and 6.67 grams of protein at the full 15-gram serving size.
The formulation consists of sugar as the primary ingredient, followed by palm kernel oil as the fat base. Alkali-processed cocoa (Dutch-process) provides the chocolate flavor and darker color. Palm oil is included as a secondary fat to adjust melting properties. Nonfat dry milk and dry whole milk contribute dairy solids that give this coating a milk-chocolate-adjacent flavor profile. Soy lecithin functions as an emulsifier to promote smooth melting and uniform texture. Natural flavors complete the ingredient list.
The product contains no artificial colors, artificial flavors, or synthetic preservatives — the fat system is inherently stable due to palm kernel oil's high saturated fat content (lauric acid predominates), which contributes to its room-temperature solidity and clean-melt behavior without tempering. This differentiates it from real chocolate, which requires precise temperature-controlled tempering for proper crystallization. The absence of cocoa butter means it does not meet FDA standards for chocolate. Allergens include milk and soy. The product is wheat-free based on the listed ingredients.
