Gel and soy in the same container????


Recommended Posts

:confused: I want to make some Kahlua drink candles. I wanted to put coffee scented gel in the bottom and top them off with vanilla scented soy, but I think I read somewhere that you cant mix the two waxes in the same container. Any advice if I can do this or not. I supposed I could just do it and burn it to see what happens, but I'd rather know if I'm going to have a problem or not before I start.

Thanks!

Sure you can do it.

You have to make sure that both FO's are Non Polar gel safe. The reason you want gel safe FO in the soy is it will burn first and mix in with the gel as it burns.

The only other problem I see is getting the wick right, so it will burn both the soy & the gel. Just test different wicks till you find the right one.
