Try coconut oil instead of wax and I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised! It tastes amazing, it makes the chocolate shiny and you don’t have to eat wax!

I have used Parrifin Wax for years, not only does it make the Chocolate shiny but it preserves. My Mom always started making Chrisymas Candy the Day after Thanks. You don't use so much wax. I can remember when I was a kid, my Mom would out melted wax on top of her preserves when she canned it. She lived to be 94 yrs 11 mos.

@@Rebecca-r7h that’s a great question. In the past, I’ve tasted candy made with wax (didn’t enjoy it), but I’ve never actually made it using wax as I try to avoid ingesting such things. I would assume it’s a 1:1 ratio. Perhaps try a small batch first to verify?

A candy that I make that was passed down from my mom was peanut butter balls. I also use the Gulf Wax in my chocolate and it does make them shiny and pretty. I use toothpicks in my peanut butter balls to dip them into the chocolate. Once the chocolate hardens I take them all out. Note: I put a toothpick in each peanut butter ball, stick them in the fridge for about 30 minutes, take them out and dip, stick em back in the fridge and once that chocolate hardens I take all the toothpicks out.

Yes mam! You can google it. It helps when you're dipping anything. People use it in cake pops. It raises the melting point in chocolate, so the candies don't melt at room temp or when holding it. It doesn't change the taste. It also gives the chocolate a nice shine. 🥰
