Review: Great Melting Chocolate and Good For Snacking - We made chocolate covered pecans with these. The chocolate is a perfect blend of flavors with the pecans. The chips melt well in a double broiler and continues to a good consistency during the dipping process for the pecan halves. The chocolate has an amazing flavor. In fact, my wife enjoys eating the chips straight out of the candy dish.

Great product and tasted good too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Same as Small Red Bag Dark Wafers
*by J***Z on January 5, 2026*

I believe this is the same as the red bag dark chocolate wafers. I used to buy them in a big red bag at Sam's C but now can only find 10 oz bags at the grocery store. This bag has same exact nutrition and ingredients as the red bag I'm used to buying and turned well for my Christmas chocolate dipping needs. Still trying to find a cheaper option but at least this bigger bag dies save money over the small red bags of dark wafers. Tastes good too
