pdevine Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I am wanting to make some drizzle to pour over paraffin cakes. I will be using a mixture of gel and paraffin and whipping very little. I've only ever made the icing out of paraffin, so does anyone have a starting point as to what amount of each I should start testing with? I don't have but a few lbs of gel, so I don't have alot for screw ups,,,LOL TIA Portia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizbizzyb Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I would melt the gel then mix in the parrafin (mind you I have never mixed the two)......then pour over the cake.I use gel to drizzle over my cheesecake....just use the pouring pot the same....just don't need to melt alot of waxHTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creativegems Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Make sure you put uv in your icing or the color of the drizzle will eventually suck out the color of your candle and turn the drizzle a different color.Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in KY Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Janet, does UV work? I have tried it and didn't help but it might have been from the wrong place. Since I have gotten from several companies and they all look different. Could you tell me a good place to buy it from. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrystalClear Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I get my UV from BCN. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
