Ohhh, cinna buns are my favorite. Which type of wick do you use? You made the plate too? Great job. Love it

AuntieS

How much beeswax would you add to the soy, pp

AuntieS

Thanks Jami, for your reply

Auntie S

How much beeswax would you add to say 1 lb of soy wax

Hi, does anyone have suggestions on which wick(s) to use for a 3"x3" cinna bun pillar? I used IGI 4625 and 1oz of FO pp.

Auntie S

Hi all, thanks for all the responses. With all the different suggestions I'm sure we'll be able to figure something out. Candlebuddy, yours I think is the closest, I remember having to pour the wax on a cookie pan and scraping it up with a scrapper. Then when the pieces are small enough, you roll it around in the pan to take the square edges off. I just don't know what temps to pour at. I'm a newbie at this and I need detailed instructions for EVERYTHING. Thanks again for all the input. I can't believe how great this message board is.

Arkangel, you might be able to use the pulse button, but I'm using soy and it's kinda soft. What do you think.

Auntie S

Thanks Candlebuddy. I will try that. Are you using soy wax?

Auntie S

Hi all, the crumbles are chunks of wax, some smaller than others. They don't look like they are made in a blender. I had found a site that told you how to do it. There wasn't too much info, just the basics. But I can't find the site now. I 've looked through all the instruction sites I have bookmarked and I can't find it. Arkangel, you have the right idea, I remember it saying something about you having to use a scrapper. I don't have a pic to post. Thanks for all the respones. If I do find the site , I'll come back and tell you. Bye for now.

Yes Sharon, they are used in a tart warmer. I the ones I bought were in a nice 8oz country jar, homespun tied around it, little wooden scoop attached and the scent was oatmeal raisin cookie and it had little raisin embeds in it.

OMG it is so cute.

Auntie S

Can anyone share some info on making soy wax crumbles. I see them everywhere. I even bought some at recent craft show that I attened. I would love to know how to make them.

Auntie S

Thanks Trish, I'll try sending her an email.

I'm new at candle making. What is the difference between just a zip lock bag and a polypro bag? Please someone enlighten me!!!
