Sab Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I just got them in my shipment today. I'm using JSB 50/50 wax. Will they pop right out of the plastic or will I have to use a mold release before I pour?Thanks, Sab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amieelynne Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 OK, silly noob question..lol I thought the point of clamshells was to make them and seal them within the container--not pop them out, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sab Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 I just needed to make sure they'll come out of the container easily when it's time to use them in a tart burner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amieelynne Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 ok, see..I told you it was a silly question. it's way too late for me to be here on the board reading and trying to think..lol of course :duh: they have to come out when you sell them... time for me to check out before I embarass myself anymore :tiptoe: :tiptoe: :tiptoe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFTS Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 from a consumer side, I really don't like pure container wax for tarts. Having to scrape it out of my tart burner with a knife is a pain. With votive wax in there, you just pry it a bit and the whole thing just pops out. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathyNJ Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 from a consumer side, I really don't like pure container wax for tarts. Having to scrape it out of my tart burner with a knife is a pain. With votive wax in there, you just pry it a bit and the whole thing just pops out. JMOI was wondering the same as Sab about using some kind of mold release for the clamshells or the mini muffin pans. I did a search for the muffin pans andI beleive someone did mention to use mold release but also a post about useof non stick muffin pans and tart just pops out. Wasn't sure about the clamshells. What I never thought about was what KFTS posted "from a consumer side". I have also just used my soy container wax leftovers in thefoil muffin liners from BCN for my own personal use. So when I use my clamshells and or muffin pans, I'll be sure to use the votive/pillar blend for my tarts. Actually, I bought a sample of the Ecosoy blend months ago just for tarts and forgot all about it until now. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
