Thank you so much for sharing! I'd like to consider myself a good candle maker and just came across 1000lbs of palm wax at a VERYYYy good price... so I couldn't pass it up. I had never used it before, as it was a little more expensive. You have cleared up a lot for me, however! If I could bother you with one more question, since you seem to be the resident palm wax user here... would there be any reason that you can think of that a palm candle will not come out of the mold? I did not use mold release spray (was not sure if i could??). I tried freezing... and nothing. I had to melt the wax back out of the mold! Any insight is apprecuated it!
