Merckens Melting Wafers From a Chocolate Name Dating to 1921
Merckens has a story that starts in Buffalo, New York. In 1921, German immigrant August Merckens Sr. purchased Reed Chocolate Company, made it his own and founded Merckens Chocolate Company. Today the brand is offered by Cargill as a bulk chocolate supplier in North America, and its chocolates and Rainbow coatings still carry the same flavor profile the brand has had for years.
Here you can discover two Merckens staples for serious melting projects: Milk Chocolate Melting Wafers and Dark Chocolate Melting Wafers, each sold in a 45lb bulk case. That is plenty of chocolate for dipping strawberries, coating pretzels, molding candies or drizzling over cookies. Pair them with finds from our baking collection to round out your kitchen setup.
Big batches call for big supply, so these cases suit holiday candy-making marathons, wedding favor tables, bake sales and busy confectionery kitchens. Melt, dip, set and share homemade chocolate gifts with everyone on your list.
