At least they rarely suggest adding paraffin anymore - although I bet you'll find the suggestion in a lot of the older community cookbooks.

 

Yeah, I have a book from the mid 80's that was among the books I inherited from my mom called Chocolates & Petit Fours that calls for that in some of the chocolate recipes. I haven't been tempted to try it. 😁

EDIT: After a quick peek, I have to apologize to Ms. Beverley Sutherland Smith for attributing the above information to her book. I'm not sure which book I'm thinking of but it's apparently not that one. 😆
