Wilton Candy Melts Melting Pot, Perfect for Dipping, Drizzling & Decorating Strawberries, Cakepops and other Treats, 2.5-cup Capacity, Packaging May Vary

If you are a baker or work frequently with melted chocolate this is a must buy. I was constantly burning chocolate trying to melt it in the microwave (the way the candy melts instructions say to!) and working over the stove with a double boiler is too much of a hassle. This works quickly and easily, with no fuss and no issues. I let my chocolate melt while I’m doing other things, and the keep warm function keeps it from cooling while I’m working. I’m using melted chocolate way more now because it’s not a nightmare to do anymore. It’s incredibly easy to clean by just running it under hot water and letting the chocolate melt away.

This chocolate melter is such a great tool to have, especially for baking, dipping, or making treats. It melts chocolate evenly and keeps it at just the right temperature no more burnt or clumpy chocolate like with the microwave!It’s easy to use and clean, and it made my dessert prep so much smoother. My kids love melting chocolate just to dip their strawberries in as a snack so this is a must have!

This works GREAT using regular grocery-store baking-aisle chocolate-chips. I was worried special "melting wafers" would be required, but no, regular Toll House/Kroger and Ghirardelli chocolate works just fine! I've used both semi-sweet and white chocolate chips.As per the directions, it does take about 20 minutes to melt a pot-full of it, so plan your timeline accordingly, but it keeps it melted without issue and is really easy to work with and clean. I love the plastic insert -> it makes it so much easier to clean. Popping off the residual chocolate is just as easy as it's advertised.I can't speak to the lifespan, but I imagine it's pretty simple electronics and should last a long while. I'll come back and update this if it breaks/burns out in the near future.In summary: If you occasionally play with melting chocolate, dipping or drizzling, THIS IS GREAT. My biggest regret with this, is that I didn't buy it sooner.

I wanted to be able to dip my own fruit to make somewhat healthy desserts. The chocolate melted fast. Now, I learned an important lesson next. It won’t work well with frozen fruit! Take it from me and don’t waste your time or chocolate on something frozen. It made the chocolate solidify, then it had to melt again. This was no fault of the machine, this was my fault. This will work best with room temperature items.Over all this is a great little machine. Cleaned up very easy. Used a paper towel to remove as much of the left over chocolate as I could. Rinsed with really hot water then put the melting cup in the dishwasher. Tip: You don’t want to dump extra chocolate down the drain, it will clog your drain.Heating unit wipes off easily. I will be enjoying this melter for a long time.

I really like this product it melts the candy melts really well and keeps it warm. However the package states it comes with a divided tray in order to melt two different types of melts and mine did not come with it. I even returned it thinking it was just a mistake but the replacement also did not have the divider. Good product just wish it came with what it says it comes with.

Where has this been all my adult life. It’s super easy to use and clean up from. Makes candy dipping so much easier. And the chocolate didn’t over heat it get to cold. If you dip anything in chocolate BUY THIS!!

I have to say I always have seen this product getting promoted and I was like let me see if it’s worth the money. I love how sturdy it is, abs it work well just like how everyone else described it. I have to say it is a good product for the value of money that it’s being sold for. I love how I can use it for parties or non fires to melt chocolate for people to enjoy with fruits or marshmallows.

Doesn’t work to good
