carol k Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 they have instructions at millcreek,(mcsoywax.com) their mc125 soy wax is gb's 415. most places that have pure soy wax it's gb's 415, with the exception of the c named waxes they are from cargill.

blazerina Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Is this a good wax for tarts? There are a lot of soy tarts out there but it seems all the supplier sites I look at don't say anything about if it is good for these or not. Any help would be appreciated, thank you so much. p.s. Do they even make a parafin wax in flake form like the soys often come in? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soycrazy Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 In my experience no it frosts something terrible & it's very soft for tarts. Unless maybe you could add something to it, but I've never tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kforbs126 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 I used 415 for tarts and jar candles. I've just recently changed how I'm doing my tarts in mini muffin wrappers so they don't get messy. They were hard to package and not get messy before I started using the muffin wrappers.

mindy5140 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 I used to use this wax for my tarts but I was sick of the smeared wax on my packaging so I switched to a blend that I made up. The scent throw is awesome I had tarts last forever when I made them in this wax. When using you would have to get used to the frosting, smudges on packaging and putting your tart warmer cup in the freezer so that the tart will pop out. Since it's used mainly for containers the wax sticks to the surface and is hard to get out of the warmers unlike normal tart wax.HTH,Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
