Candlebuddy Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Tonight I'm test burning Maple Walnut Fudge from www.tncandlesupplies.com ... the hot throw is totally awesome (yummy cold throw too). I did my first test burn today at 4:00 pm, by 4:30 pm the scent had filled my dining room and was drifting down the hallway. 45 minutes ago I started my second test burn, and the scent has already filled my dining room, living room, foyer & hallway. This is not your ordinary maple scent ... I can really pick up on the walnut and fudge notes. It reminds me of a jar of wet walnuts (the topping that you put on ice cream to make a sundae) mixed with a little hot fudge. Maple Walnut Fudge is a winner ... no more plain Maple Syrup or Maple Sugar for me. :whoohoo: Oh yeah, I almost forgot ... I used Farmhouse 50/50 soy blend at 8%, CD12, 8oz sq. mason jar, cure time almost 3 weeks. (I don't usually give candles this long of a cure time, but I've poured so many testers lately, that I haven't gotten around to burning this one until today.)

sisterkaren Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Thanks for the review. I am so glad that I found TCS. Their oils throw super strong for us too. I will have to try this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovy Chic Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I'm pouring that one today. Thanks for the review. Have you tried their Gingerbread Applesauce? OOB it is fantastic. I hope it throws great because I love this one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 Groovy Chic ... I tested the Gingerbread Applesauce but didn't get a good hot throw ... 50/50 soy, 8%, CD12, 4 day cure. I'm thinking that I need to give it more of a cure time. I love TCS, but I have to cure longer than usual with their fo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get a good throw with the Gingerbread Applesauce either and I let it cure for quite a while, same with the Warm Orange Gingerbread - I was really disappointed since both smelled awesome OOB - but I love their Butterscotch Brule, Harvest, Spicey Apples & Peaches, & Pumpkin Souffle - awesome throwers in my pre-blended paraffin....

Groovy Chic Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Well, rats on the Gingerbread Applesauce not throwing in 50/50. I think I'll try 75/25 and see if the extra will help with the throw. I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovy Chic Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Just an update on Gingerbread Applesauce. I upped my wax to 75 paraffin/25 soy and I'm getting an awesome throw now. For those who have this scent and use a blend, try upping your paraffin and see if it helps. Mine has an awesome throw now, man that stuff is good!
