firstlady Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 over the weekend my daughter went to flea market, bought a few tarts off a lady that was selling soy tarts. the scent was strong and we was able to smell a few scents we hadn't smell yet. but i notice on the warning label that it said to use a non electric potpourri burner, is this what you suppose to use with soy tarts, i have only electric warmers and hadn't even read the label till i started to trash paper. for a soy tart it was clean and neat, most i have seen was soft and smeared in bag. it was a good tart and my daughter liked some of the scents she tried, so it was a cheap way to see if i was going to like a scent, i have scents in there that i can't stand but costed me more than a dollar to find that out.

Kaybee23 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Hmmm....I have never seen that before. I have always used them in my electric burners with no problems, and that is all I make is soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstlady Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 Me either Kaybee, it melted fine. but since i don't make soy tarts, i thought it might be of some truth, i just hadn't seen it before:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guppygirl Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I have no idea why she would put non-electric on her labels. I make tons of soy tarts as does SharoninKY and I'd say at least 3/4 of our customers use electric warmers exclusively!HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol M Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I was kind of puzzled by that, also. I noticed it on the warning label of some old Yankee tarts I have had for a couple of years. I'm looking at the warning label on one right now and it does say to burn in a candlelit potpourri pot with rim, and to never use an electric pot. Do you think maybe they mean those little "crock pots" that are meant for liquid potpourri? I'm sure they get a lot hotter than electric tart warmers.

Bev Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I use my soy tarts in my electric burner all the time and have never had a problem. I do not know why she would put that on her label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbkfdu4 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Here are four different tart labels that I found suppliers selling. I have never had a problem with soy tarts or paraffin tarts burning in an electric tart warmer. Did it specifically say "Soy tart warning"? I didn't find one that referred to soy tarts in specific.Each label is worded a little different. There was someone on this board that had purchased some tart warning labels and when she got them they had the wording similar to the first one. She said she could not use them because she sells electric tart warmers. Failure to follow these directions could result in unexpected fire hazard or personal injury. Use only in well ventilated low heat potpourri burner without lid. Do not add water. Never heat on stove or electric appliance where temperature would exceed 190 degrees F. Melt enough product to have 1/2 inch of product in pot. Use only in melters designed for wax tarts. Tart Safety/Warning LabelsOur Tart labels measure 1.25" around and are really a must-have when reselling your finished product. Tart labels state the following: Caution: Failure to following instructions could result in fire hazard, injury or smoke damage. Place in well ventilated, tart approved burner. Do not add water. Never heat on stove or any non-certified tart appliance. Do not allow flame to touch underside of melt pot. Do not heat if pot contains less than 1/2" of wax. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Never leave a burning tart and/or candle unattended. Great label for the Clamshell Tart molds.Available in rolls of 100 labels. $3.25, click below to order. Warning! Remove all packaging material before melting. Melt in a dry potpourri burner, NEVER ADD WATER. Only use well ventilated burner that uses a tea light candle as a heat source. Do not heat on stove or any electric appliance. Be sure the container is well ventilated to avoid risk of fire. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep out of reach of children & pets. Keep wax free of matches, wick trimmings & flammable materials. Do not move while candle is burning or wax is hot. Failure to follow instructions could result in fire, injury or some damage.

Sharon in KY Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yankee sold their paraffin tarts with a no electric warning label. That is till they started selling electric tart warmers. Now it's ok as far as Yankee is concenered. Of course they sell the non light bulb warmers so I'm sure they would say you couldn't use those. Next year bet they will sell the light bulb warmers and they will be the best thing going and the prettiest too.I have had a punched tin electric tart warmer for about 8 years or more. Yankee was the only place to buy tarts at first. Sure glad I started making tarts and introducing electric warmers to lot of customers. Now they're hooked like I am...

iammommytwo Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Those are exactly the labels I use on my tarts....I thought those were the only ones that are available. I got them at BCN. If someone knows of a "soy specific" tart label....please let us know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I use strictly electric tart warmers and I make pure soy clamshells. I would promte the electric tart warmers over the tealite ones because there's not flame to keep an eye on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstlady Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 Thats the one in picture , NBKFDU4. i preferr the electric warmers over tealight but thought maybe for soy tart it was different. mine i use don't say anything about not useing a electric warmer, it says to use a low wattage warmer. and i have notice my coffeee mug warmer which is 24 watts, lose the scent faster when melting a tart, than the 17 watt ones i use from walmart.

allie Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I don't think it would really matter. Most people put them in what ever they want too. It could mean not to use in one of those crock pot style warmers from wal-mart. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britishgirl Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 i personally only use tealights under my soy melts but thats because i dont have electric one as long as the bowl part is large enough to hold the melted wax whats the difference??

islandgirl Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I emailed BCN a while back, and have seen it asked on their board to add warning labels for tart/melts that say "For use in an tart approved burner/warmer".

chiptooth Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I haven't used an electric "tart" warmer myself just the ones with tea lites, but when I read the warning label that says a non-electric potpourri burner I took it to mean the burners specifically for porpourri...the ones that you put liquid potpourri in. I don't put the "non-electric" warning on mine 'cause everyone I've sold tarts to have not had a problem with soy tarts in the electric tart warmers.
