I have a recipe that calls for "dipping chocolate or confectioners' coating". What is that?

Question

I'm about to go to my local grocery store and look for it. What should I be looking for? Will it be in a cardboard box? Will it be solid or powdered?
Help, please :)

Answer 1

Its solid, its like fondue chocolate. Ive seen it in a little foil package, they may have it on the baking aisle but i've seen it alot around the deli, where they have specialty foods.

Answer 2

It most probably will be in wafers. Usually you can find them with cake and baking supplies, or in the bulk dept.
