Why do chocolate bars have wavy lines?

The way most candy bars are covered with chocolate is by being out on a conveyor belt while a veil of wet chocolate covers them.

As a result, they are left with the pattern of the belts on their bottom side and very often with a less noticeable pattern on the top side.
