bunkie68 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Has anyone done this? Just starting out and trying something new, I don't necessarily want to invest in molds for bath bombs, and I thought muffin tins might be a good size to use.

MaggieMay Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 When I first made bath bombs I did use the muffin tins....so this will work fine...Hugs Maggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunkie68 Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 Thanks, Maggie! Do I just squash all the ingredients in nice and tight, and then let them dry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crafty1_AJ Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I used them too.After squishing and packing tightly, unmold. You don't wait for them to dry in the muffin tin. At least I didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asheebeans Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I bought my stainless steel meatballer for around $5 from a kitchen store. Those are great. I would buy one of those over the silicone muffin pans, if that is what you were talking about. If not, I would be afraid with the metal ones, the fragrance would react with the teflon somehow. Not sure on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunkie68 Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share Posted May 14, 2007 Thanks for the thoughts, y'all!I had been thinking of the silicone muffin pans - I've got one with heart-shaped cavities and thought it might be cute.asheebeans, about how big is the meatballer, and do you just scoop the bombs out and then set them out on something to dry? I'd be afraid mine would fall apart and end up being fizzy bath powder. And where would you find different-shaped molds for bath bombs? I've looked, but have only found rounds ones so far. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I have a meatballer also it's a smaller one. I just press the ends together as hard as I can and then gently put them apart. I've not had a problem with not coming out so far. But I take them out as soon as I get them smashed in there good while they are still moist I don't wait. HTHThis is JMHO on the muffin tins. Since you aren't letting the bombs setting in them very long I don't see that the fo would be a problem with the teflon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunkie68 Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 can you use your hands like making a snowball?I'm from Texas, what do I know from making snowballs? I've never been that good at making things anywhere close to spherical, and I wouldn't trust myself to make them look pretty.I may have to go find myself a meatballer.
