How much paraffin wax is used in making chocolate candy?

Paraffin wax is sometimes used in chocolate candy to enhance the appearance and texture, but its use is not standard. Typically, only small amounts are added, usually around 1-2% of the total chocolate weight, if at all. Many high-quality chocolates do not contain paraffin, as it can affect the flavor and mouthfeel. Always check ingredient labels for specific formulations.
