? about bleeding embeds


Recommended Posts

I make embeds with clean wax but will be running out in a while. The thing is they bleed into my soy wax and I want to look for a wax that doesn't bleed. I make soy candles and tarts but if I have to use a Paraffin for embeds, then so be it. I only have a couple of dark shapes this affects. Cherry and blueberry cause the container wax they go in is so much lighter. Also my soy bleeds when making two or tri color candles. Maybe a thin layer of another wax so I would not be changing my whole candle. If anyone knows of a wax that will not bleed please let me know, thanks...

;) Have you tried Ecosoys Pure? That's what I have been using and I did a two-toned dreamsicle candle, orange on the bottom and white on the top and it turned out great, no bleeding. I did let the bottom set up for about 4-6 hours to ensure it was fully cooled. Hope that helps.

I haven't heard of it but will go check it out. I made some layers last year and they are great for awhile but as time goes by..
