Wilton Chocolate Candy Melts - can I make those a week in advance?!


Question: It wouldn't affect them, would it?


Answers: It wouldn't affect them, would it?

Actually Winton’s melts are not really chocolate. If you look at the ingredients label you’ll see that there is no cocoa butter, but instead some type of vegetable oil. On the package you will not find the word chocolate unless it is as “chocolate flavored”. Real chocolate contains cocoa butter and is much harder to work with than the confectioners coating buttons you find at the craft store. The ease of use of a vegetable oil based coating verses real chocolate makes it a good fit for home and hobbyist even though the taste is not quite as good.

Normally if the coating is kept in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight, it will have a shelf life of over a year.
