Our team offers a wide selection of baking chocolate options and bulk candy to suit every recipe and every palate. From rich dark chocolate chunks to sweet white chips and creative candy mix-ins, we’ve got exactly what you need. Let’s explore how to pick the right chocolate and highlight some of our best choices for bakers.
Why Baking Chocolate Matters
Not all chocolate is created equal—especially when it comes to baking. Regularly eating chocolate may not hold up in high heat or may melt inconsistently. In contrast, real baking chocolate is specially designed to melt smoothly, blend well, and hold its flavor in baked goods.
When you choose high-quality chocolate from Weaver Nut Company, you’re setting yourself up for better flavor, consistency, and performance every time you bake. Whether you’re making brownies or cookies, the difference is noticeable. Your desserts will not only taste better, but they’ll also look more polished and professional.
Top Types of Baking Chocolate and When to Use Them
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
These are a must-have for cookies, muffins, brownies, and more. Our Hershey’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips 1000 count are a classic choice. With just the right balance of sweet and bitter, they work beautifully in a wide variety of recipes.
For smaller chips that melt evenly into batter, try Hershey’s Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Chips, 4000 count. They distribute well throughout cakes and muffins for little bites of chocolate in every bite.
Milk Chocolate Options
Want a sweeter, creamier chocolate? Our Van Leer Kenosha Milk Chocolate 36% Cacao delivers a silky smooth texture and sweet cocoa flavor. This one is ideal for candy making, molded treats, or even fudge.
White Chocolate
White chocolate adds richness and a creamy vanilla touch. The Hershey’s Premier White Vanilla Baking Chips are perfect for cookies, blondies, and drizzling over bars.
If you want something truly decadent and smooth, our Van Leer Ultimate White Chocolate Wafers melt easily and offer premium white chocolate flavor for truffles and dipping.
Dark and Unsweetened Chocolate
For a rich flavor, dark chocolate is perfect for intense cakes and brownies. Try our vegan-friendly Barry Callebaut Dairy Free Chocolate made with rice milk for a smooth, deep taste with a creamy texture. You can also exploreBarry Callebaut Chocolate Liquor Ribbon Dark Unsweetened Chunks for an even bolder, unsweetened chocolate option that delivers pure, intense cocoa flavor.
Creative Add-Ins
Looking to mix things up? Add color and flavor with Andes Creme de Menthe Baking Chips. These minty chips are perfect for holiday cookies, chocolate bark, or topping brownies.
If you want to bring a fun candy twist to your treats, check out M&M Mini Milk Chocolate Baking Bits. They’re kid-approved and ideal for cookies, bars, or trail mix.
Tips for Using Baking Chocolate
To get the most from your baking chocolate, here are a few quick tips:
- Use the right-sized chips. Smaller chips melt faster and distribute more evenly in batters.
- Store properly. Keep your chocolate in a cool, dry place to avoid bloom or melting.
