CountryGal Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I am trying to make the soy cinnamon bun candle. I am using the EcoSoya PB w/ 1 oz pp FO and I used 4 drops pp of the Evo Brown liquid dye. I don't like the color of the "bun". I have a bun that I bought from someone ... my inspiration for trying them actually, and hers looks so nice and much more realistic....how do you'all color the buns? (cinnabuns please!). I also think I am going to get a different mold as this one isn't quite what I was looking for, but I would LOVE suggestions on the color. Thank you!

idahospud Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I use brown and butterscotch for mine, makes them nice and golden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in KY Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Sprinkle some cinnamon in the mold before you pour, might look more real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryGal Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks....I'll have to add butterscotch to my list of colors. And thanks Sharon for that suggestion too...I sprinkle it on the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grammafransfixins Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I get my liquid dye from Lonestar Candle Supply. I use the honey/vanilla.. think that's the name.. LOLI use eco soya pb and for each 1# batch use 2 drops of dye. I usually don't have a problem with the color varying too much...and have never had anyone say they don't like the color..LOLThanks!!Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
