LynnS Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Makin'some tarts and may have made a mistake because I used my soy wax that was left over.The tarts seem to soft.Should I have used the pillar blend.I know for the votives you use that but now I think I made a boo boo.Please Help:( LynnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaybee23 Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 For tarts, votive or pillar blend works better. But some also take their container blend and add stearic or beeswax and that will help firm it up a bit so it will release. You might try sticking them in the freezer for a about 5-10 mins and see if you can get them to release. But yes, container blend by itself as a rule is too soft for tarts.

LynnS Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 I used PAM to help get them out but they would break easy.Real soft.I will go with the pillar.No way do I want them to break if someone buys them.The PAM does work, but the top (in the middle) is whitish and wonder if it is the PAM coming through.Going to try without the PAM and with the harder wax it should be fine.Also if a problem getting them out I will put in the fridge.I read that but forgot how long.Thank So Much.SaLe in 6 days and I waited to do it all this week.LynnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
