Yes, I now I probably would, but I do not want to mess with tempering it
and my wallet would rather I us Almond bark ![]() unless they go INTO the batter/dough/candy. I never use them to coat, as I don't think they work as well as Almond Bark does. I've used couverture before for truffles, and yes, it is better, but the cost for me is just not wht I want to do for stuff that I eat little to none of! Most of the candy making I do is for gifts for friends neighbors and some family for Christmas. They seem happy, so I will stick with what works. > You would be sooo much happier with couverture, altho it needs to be > tempered. The flavor and appearance are much better.
