No but it certainly tastes that way, doesn't it? While there isn't wax, there is a significant amount of oil which aids in the waxy texture. Higher quality chocolate is made with cocoa butter which gives it a smooth texture. However, Hershey's doesn't use as much cocoa butter as the higher grade stuff because it's more expensive. (which is why the Lindt bars cost much more than the Hershey's bars.)
Probably not.
Wax is not permitted in products advertised as chocolate in the United States.
Some home recipes for confections do call for the use of paraffin to help chocolate set with a glossy sheen. However, use of careful chocolate tempering techniques will give better look and taste to your homemade candies.
Some chocolate products, however, can use confectionery waxes such as carnauba for panned chocolates. An example of this would be malted milk balls or chocolate coated peanuts like Nestle Goobers. The wax is a minute portion of the total weight of the confection though and poses no digestive problems for most people.
No, they are made out of chocolate.
to make it last longer
no
Add chocolate syrup especially hershey :)
You can add some cooking wax to the chocolate.
Add chocolate syrup such as Hershey's syrup. Or you can add cocoa powder, also available at any supermarket.
Simple - you add commercial chocolate chips (Hershey's or Nestles). They are added to the cold dough last, and then baked. They have just enough food grade wax in them to only soften slightly during baking, rather than melting.
There are countless websites that offer perfect or the best chocolate cake recipe. Hershey's chocolate has one on their website, as does Martha Stewart, Add A Pinch, Bon Appetit and Readers Digest.
Chocolate chips or shavings can be melted to be used for chocolate mousse, and can also be added to the chocolate mousse when it's done to add structure to it. Do not add the chocolate chips or shavings in when the mousse is still very hot, or it will melt and then you will lose that extra texture.
If you mean the packages of cocoa that is made for hot chocolate, no. If you mean the brown cocoa powder made by Hershey's, yes. You have to add more sugar because it's very bitter.
The best solution for eating is, just mix the Hershey's chocolate syrup with 'Whole Foods' Original milk. That will create a perfect "Milky Chocolate" Then buy Mini Oreos or Chewy Chips Ahoy. Punch the mini oreos or Chewy Chips Ahoy and put the little pieces into the "Milky Chocolate".It will make your taste-buds happy enough to make you eat more.WARNING: It is highly addictive.
Three tablespoons of cocoa and one tablespoon of shortening is equal to one square of unsweetened chocolate. If your recipe calls for unsweetened chocolate it should work. If it calls for semi sweet or milk chocolate, you would not be able to add enough sugar to sweeten unsweetened chocolate. The end product would be too bitter.
Not really. Though the taste would be very similar, the syrup would add so much moisture from being a liquid as opposed to the solid chocolate chips and the recipe would not work out as well anymore.
You cannot use any water based colorings, as this will cause the chocolate to seize. The easiest way is to buy some green melting chips, and add them as the white chocolate melts, until you get your desired shade. You may also use powdered or oil based food colorings.
The coffee is used most often for a mocha flavoring. Otherwise it is used as the extra enhancement of the other subtle flavoring found within the chocolate. This could be the highlight of the Hershey's cocoa used or the semisweet 4oz. squares for the melting within the double boiler. However, you must be careful not to overly add in the coffee to set off the dessert flavor. It would make the dessert bitter and stringent if too much is added.
