Frequently asked questions
How many cake pops can I coat with one 125 g bag of Yellow?
Approximately 15 to 18 classic cake pops (an average of 8 g of wafers per cake pop). For an 18 to 20 cm drip cake, plan on 80 to 100 g instead.
How can I thin wafers that are too thick after melting?
Add 1/2 teaspoon of neutral vegetable oil (sunflower or grapeseed) per 125 g; never add water, as the mixture would set instantly.
Does Yellow require tempering like chocolate?
No. Candy Melts are a ready-to-use coating mixture: simply melt gently, with no temperature curve to follow.
What is the difference between Wilton Yellow Candy Melts and couverture chocolate?
Candy Melts are a sugar- and vegetable-fat-based coating mixture without cocoa butter: they melt more easily (no tempering required), but do not have the flavor profile of couverture chocolate.
