When my daughter saw these, she said ooooo cake! I said no, it's soap. Then she said, well, it still looks good enough to eat! LOL They are nice Landa...sorry it didn't turn out the way you would've like. :smiley2:
I'm not sure about the wick you're using but I would suggest either order some sample wicks from Peaks or another supplier...you can start with HTP's, CD's, ECO or Peak's Cotton wicks and start testing. HTH
Don't know if this will help but I use Peak's Cinnamon and their Cinnamon color blocks. I put mine in the microwave in a pyrex cup and heat it for a minute or two... add my wax @ 170, f.o. and stir. Never had a problem with frosting or speckles. Just my 2 cents.
I too am I fan of Millcreek container soy. Very easy wax to use and the added beeswax is a plus. I think I would add white as opposed to yellow though....I've notice when adding the yellow beeswax that it will be a little yellow but if you're coloring, then it doesn't matter. But, if not, add the white... much prettier.
Danielle, I actually put my chips in the pyrex and then stick in the microwave for a couple of minutes, then I add my wax. Does pretty good for me. HTH
