Yes. But the OP wanted to add wax to chocolate as is the practice of many
home candy makers. I wasn't suggesting that you could buy real chocolate or
even chocolate (compound) coatings that already contained wax.

After thinking about it, I remembered that cocoa butter would be a good
substitute for the paraffin wax. Again, I would look at a cake and candy
supply house for a substitute.
