I think all chocolate has some wax in it, but like many chemical compositions, filler is necessary.
Silicone caulk is a good example. It requires a certain level of silicone oil for the formula. Up to a certain level, it’s fine and poses no issues. Silicone oil is very cheap compared to the other ingredients so it’s tempting to use more. It’s not apparent at all when applying nor does it affect the cure. Higher levels of oil greatly affect longevity with the highly filled product beginning to fail in a few months.
All that is to say that you get what you pay for. Same with chocolate.
If I’m lucky, I’ll buy two candy bars a year so if it’s a $7 bar, it doesn’t matter.
I’ll just bypass all the BS and buy from Seroogy’s.
The finer things in life cost a little extra...some of the specialty chocolates here in East TN/western NC run $10 for a 2-oz bar, so it doesn’t look like the ‘God-King’ is too far off the mark. :-)
