birdieluvr76 Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I have used a little bit of Pam or a cooking spray like Pam if you don't have mold release. Just wipe almost all of it out before pouring. I have also used metal molds with nothing used to help the tarts come out, and they slid right out. Just depends on the wax you are using too.

Sab Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I stick mine in the fridge for 15 minutes and they pop right out. If that doesn't work the freezer usually does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charity4candles Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I don't use anything. When cooled completely, I turn them upside down on parchment paper, tap the bottom of each cup, and they pop right out. HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern-Marie Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I put the whole pan(s) right in the freezer. It will not harm them, and then I place a piece of wax paper on a baking tray, place that on top of the muffin tin, and turn it over. If anything still sticks, push down on the bottom of that cup with your thumb, you'll feel it release. If not, give it a good smack!Wipe the residue off with a paper towel and go on to the next batch.Not to worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raggedy Dani Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 if you're using muffin pans, with any kind of wax, after it's set all the wayput in freezer....for like 5 min no longer otherwise they'll crack...pull out and flip over and all will slip right out.HTHHugsDani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I've never tried Pam, but have used the freezer trick with good results. Just don't leave it in there for more than a few minutes or the tarts will crack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boggled Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Yup those tarts will crack if left in to long. I use votive or pillar wax, and add some paraffin. I have had problems with the straight soy being to soft for tarts, and can be a real bugger to get out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raggedy Dani Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 I mainly uses KY para/soy tart/votive blend! AWESOME to work with for tarts work lines that I do. HugsDanips i know what ya mean bout straight soy...they can be a bugger when it comes to tart making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
