About CHOCOLATE FLAVORED CANDY COATING, CHOCOLATE
Meijer Chocolate Flavored Candy Coating is a confectionery melting product used for dipping, drizzling, or coating homemade candies, cake pops, strawberries, and other treats. It is designed to melt smoothly and set to a firm, glossy shell without requiring tempering. Per 100 grams, the coating contains approximately 533 calories, 66.7 grams of carbohydrates, 30 grams of fat, and no dietary fiber. The protein content is negligible.
The ingredient list is brief and consists primarily of sugar with cornstarch (icing sugar format), palm kernel oil and palm oil, alkalized cocoa, corn syrup solids, nonfat dry milk, milk powder, soy lecithin as an emulsifier, and natural flavors. The cocoa is processed with alkali (Dutch-process), which reduces acidity and darkens color. Palm kernel oil and palm oil serve as the fat base that allows the coating to set at room temperature without refrigeration.
The product contains milk and soy as allergens. It does not contain partially hydrogenated oils or trans fats. The high fat content from tropical oils (palm kernel and palm oil) gives the product its characteristic snap and sheen when set. This type of coating is commonly called compound chocolate or confectionery coating and is distinct from true chocolate, which requires cocoa butter. It is sold as a baking ingredient in block, chip, or wafer form and is found in the baking decorations and dessert toppings section of Meijer stores.
