FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 30, 2010 -- Oasis Cake Decorating and Candy Making Supply, Bensalem PA has announced that they will impose a price increase for all Merckens Products this September.

Oasis Cake Decorating and Candy Making Supply Announces a Fall Price Increase for Merckens Chocolate Products.

Known for consistent and superior quality, the Merckens® brand of chocolate has been used by premium chocolate retail confectioners for more than 80 years. The brand’s flagship offerings include Marquis®, Yucatan® and Ivory® chocolate coatings.The Merckens line of Rainbow compound wafers is a leading brand in the home candy-making and cake-decorating markets. Merckens chocolate is also a key ingredient in seasonal novelties, fund-raising and private-label candy bars. ADM works closely and collaboratively with customers to determine the Merckens product that will best meet their needs.

Rob Kaneff, President of Oasis states that "We can no longer hold the pricing as we have done these past 3 years. Merckens has again raised our pricing between 5 and 10% on chocolate. We will do the best that we can regarding the price increase on our most popular items, compound coatings." Merckens® Compound Coating Chocolate is a Confectionery coating, also known as Rainbow Wafer, Confectionery Coating or Summer Coating. For use in candy molds by the novice and/or professional candy maker. Compound Coating should not be confused with 'Real' chocolate.

The Oasis confectionery compound coating has a rich chocolate velvety flavor, and may contain small amounts of cocoa butter or chocolate liquor, but they primarily contain other vegetable fats and cocoa for easier handling and faster set up. The colored confectionery coatings have a pleasant vanilla flavor and that same velvety melt-in-your mouth feel. Confectionery coating does not contain wax, which could be a health risk for some people. We no longer advise you to add wax to chocolate for dipping or molding chocolates. Use Merckens® instead and stop eating wax! Confectionery coating is not as sensitive to the high humidity and temperatures of summer. Renown for their creamy texture and unique milky flavor. Select pure chocolate liquors, cocoa, cocoa butter and whole milk combine to give it its recognized flavor. Easy to use in wafer form. "Coating Chocolate" can also be used in most recipes that call for "chocolate" not defined as pure, real or coating.
