I received my 25# of 416 yesterday and have made two batches of tarts. 1. In both batches, I had something very odd happen. Some of the tops were smooth and some were not - right next to one another, all factors the same. 2. I have to agree that the wax holds a lot of FO. I used 10%. 3. Even after putting them in the freezer, I had trouble getting some of them to release. <sigh> I suppose I need to use a mold release of some sort. Ended up with some actually breaking pieces off, not to mention my broken fingernails. I guess I'm spoiled by the mix I'd been using, which was somewhat of an accidental thing ;-). I had some waxes I needed to use up - some Astorlite Q and some KY Bluegrass - and was mixing them 50/50 then adding 1/2 oz. pp of beeswax. They always turned out beautifully. No frosting. No sticking - they fall out of the mold. They are a little softer and I didn't use as much FO (max 1.5 oz per pound) but they were not overly soft and could easily be wrapped in plastic wrap without making a mess. And I poured it hot - immediately after adding the colorant and FO. A quick top-off if they sunk a bit in the middle while cooling was all I had to do. I'm going to keep trying a couple more batches of this, but it's definitely proving to be more work than my blend... which has probably made me lazy! Now I have to go find the snow shovel. Yesterday it was 73 and tomorrow we're supposed to get 2-4" of snow. AAAHHH... Wisconsin!
