Can I use press and seal instead of..

[diamondk]

saran wrap for CPOP? Is there anything else I could use instead of saran wrap? TIA

[eugenia]

LOL, Karol. You and me again. I use the Press and Seal all the time. In fact, I prefer it!

Thank you. I am getting tired of breaking rubberbands to hold the saran wrap. Did you know when rubberbands break they hurt? LMAO

The only thing I don't like about the press-n-seal is that it's blue and has writing on it. Otherwise, that stuff is magic.

Are you going to sell it like that or just covering to store it?

I have some candles that don't have lids, that currently have press-n-seal on their tops, but I didn't really think it looked very professional to sell them like that. ???

Michi, I am only using it for CPOP instead saran wrap when I put it in the oven. My press and seal is white with writing on it.

I dont use anything. Any special reason why you use it?

I have read and ask questions about CPOP and it all came up with cover your mold with saran wrap and place in warm oven. When you do CPOP you don't cover your mold? If not, how does it come out? TIA

Nope, I dont cover it at all. It comes out fine. I never have any ash or anything wrong with it.

I always leave it in for 2 hours at 175 then turn it off. Eight hours or less later, its ready to cut.

Hmmm, still wondering why others use saran wrap.

Thanks Carmen, I am making soap this afternoon so I will try that and see what happens.

[Meridith]

I've heard too that you cover your soap to help prevent ash. I just did a CPOP soap last weekend that for the first time, I didn't cover because the mold was too full and I don't like the looks of my soap tops when the saran wrap touches it. I checked my soap last night. and its getting ash already. I think I will contunue to cover my soap from now on.

[diamondk]

Ok, now I am really confused but what else is new here. LOL

[eugenia]

Karol, I always cover it and I've never had ash. Ever.

Carmen, you can see a bit of condensation if you peek. I believe the wrap helps to hold the heat in. Just as when baking, some dishes need to be covered.
