  1. Snowtop! Their mulled cider is awesome. It smells the same to me as JS' Cinnamon cider too if that helps!
  2. I stick the trays in the freezer for a few minutes- then hold it above my counter and just drop the tray, bottom up. Sometimes I have to drop it down onto the counter a few times but they all eventually release just fine for me. I have to do that with boy soy and paraffin.
  3. I use mini ice cube trays. I got mine from Walter Drake. It says their site is temporarily down but if you go to www.wdrake.com and type in ice cube trays- go about 3 or 4 products down they're right there- the blue trays. They're super cheap- $2.99 for a package of 4 trays. Each tray makes 90 cubes. I make melts out them and they've been a big hit!
  4. My best selling fruit scents are Monkey Farts from Millcreek, Citrus Linen H20 and Pink Lemonade both from Just Scent. Cherry Slush from KY (this is my #1 seller in fruity) and Melonade from BCN. Green Apple from Snowtop is another one that's a great seller for me.

  6. YAY! I hope you have me. I've been on a search for the perfect VBN and I hear she's the one that has it! LOL
  7. I can't even remember what I got! LOL I know I ordered more of the pumpkin vanilla and cinnamon toasted almonds. Of the new ones, I know I got Cherry Clove Chutney (I'm on a big fall scent kick right now!LOL) I know I got one or two other new ones, but I can't remember what they were! LOL
  8. Pumpkin scents are my favorite right now, and I seriously dislike anything pumpkin flavored- but looking at that soap makes me want to eat it! Awesome!
  9. I use Brambleberry's for the most part. What I have right now is from the last co-op that was done here, not sure where it came from but aside from it being a slight bit softer, it's the same. I have another order of it coming from BB soon.
  10. Millcreeks Fresh Fruit Slices smells exactly the same to me as Peaks' version. I got killer throw from both.
  11. I checked last night and saw that they had been added!!! I bought a few to try out! Can't wait!
  12. I personally use Peaks. Have never tried MC's version or NG's version myself. Snowtop is in Ohio and they recently added a Macintosh Apple, their oils are tested in soy- if that one is half as good as their green apple, then it's most definitely a winner. Just thought I'd throw another option into the mix! LOL
  13. Yes, if you have a mailing list of a way to let people know about your pre-buy let us know. I WANT that Vanilla Bean Noel! LOL
  14. Yeah I sell mine FBB with a shower poof and use one myself, never had a mess with it. It's weird to hear people say it's drying though- I have some horribly dry skin and this stuff makes my skin feel awesome. Weird how people react differently!
  15. The one from KY is awesome. www.kycandlewaxsupply.com
  16. The burners themselves come with a 15 watt bulb.
  17. I sell this, my customers and I all love it! I add sweet almond oil to it to start, then I add some jojoba beads and FO and package it in a low profile jar. I make sugar scrubs with it, just adding sugar, SAO and FO (It takes a LOT of sugar) I never measure the sugar, just add until it looks and feels right to me. I make a coffee scrub out of it with SAO, coffee grounds and a coffee FO too. I think that's all I make with it. It's a great seller for me, no matter what I do to it. MMS sent me some blueberry seeds in my last order, and I may try to make something with those someday.
  18. I sell only tarts. I do some B&B and some things like scented bears and air fresheners, but don't do wicked candles. My business is going great!
  19. The one from Peaks is great!
  20. I'll third BCS's! I've tried several and that one is the best!
  21. Tried those too! LOL I love them-they work MUCH better than the plug-ins!
  22. I've tried them- was not impressed with them at all. It took forever to melt a full size 1 ounce tart, after like 18 hours I gave up even trying. I put some mini tarts in there, and they melted faster but there really wasn't enough heat to put out much scent. If you used 100% container wax with a lower melting point you might get better results, but I'm not about to change my tart formula for one burner so...LOL Someone mentioned using a higher wattage bulb, but the burner itself says a max of 15 watts, which is what it came with. It's a great concept, but I didn't care for them at all
  23. Bear Claws from JS is a huge seller for me. Other good ones from JS that are good sellers for me are Blueberry Cheesecake and White Cake.
  24. I have the sugared cranberries. It was a customer request and I do not like it. It's sticky sweet to me, but my customers are loving it. Has a great throw in wax as well.
  25. Add another vote for The Candle Source's Pumpkin Vanilla. It's awesome!
