lou lou Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I just go my samples in from peaks and i tried the pink sugar today. As i was pouring the fo it crystalized in the bottle i had to dig it out with a straw. Then i made sure to mix it real well in the wax when i put it in my pour pot all these clumpy things were stuck to the bottom. I kept stirring they never went away so i poured the candle and all these lumps are in the candle. Do any of you know why this fo did this?

mizbizzyb Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Not sure, but if you put the bottle of fo in some warm water that is supposed to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 The crystals happen when its very cold. Simply place the F/O in very warm water and leave it until they disapate. Peaks Pink Sugar is AWESOME! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 When I receive my FOs from them during the cooler months (which is most of the year here) there are often crytals in the bottles. They usually include a slip of paper explaining that these crystals are no big deal and they will go away if you warm up the bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelestialSoyCandles Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I have tried other Pink Sugars too and they have all crystalized for me.. Maybe I will try warming the FO before adding - my favorite is the Pink Sugar from Indiana Candle SupplyHeather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I am glad to see this thread...I got the Wild Berry Crisp from KY and it was crystalized BAD. I know what to do now. Thanks!Patricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heat a bowl of water and put the bottle in there until it's uncrystalized again. I also love ICS Pink Sugar. It smells extremely similiar to Peak's, imho.

Elizabeth Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 The crystallization is pretty typical of fo's that are vanilla based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to heat and shake a little bit, heat and shake, etc for quite a while to finally get it all uncrystalized. It took forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
