Sndfrddy Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've been trying so many black cherries. Can't get any to have a hot throw. Cold throw is great but nothing for hot throw. I use 6006. Any suggestions from someone successful using 6006 would be so greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Have you tried Black Cherry from Candle Science? I use 6006 and it throws for me at 6%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 The black cherry bomb from Natures Garden is a nose burner for sure. I use about 1/2-3/4 oz in my paraffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Aroma Haven also has a good one. Don't have my notes here, but I'm almost certain that I used it in 6006 at one time. I know that I used it in 100% a few years back and found it a strong thrower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ring of Fire Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Another for Black Cherry Bomb from NG. That is one powerful FO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sndfrddy Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 You know what? I've tried all those listed. But I'm pouring them at a higher FO load than you are. I usually use 8 - 9 %. Maybe I need to try all of them again at a lower %. They are burning well. Just not throwing. I usually get a really great throw with this wax. I'll try that. Thanks so much for all your help!!!

celicagtca Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 JS has a Black Cherry that will knock your socks off. 4% is all I use in pure soy and I've always had repeat customers for that one. 8% would kill your lungs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circle Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Candlewic has a nose burner "Cherry" which smells just like Black cherry and you only need 5%. Beware that your nose hairs WILL be burnt!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sndfrddy Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 Does candlewic have sample sizes and I'm just not seeing them on their site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alajane Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I just test burned CS's Black Cherry this weekend poured at 8% and it was so strong it was awful! I used all my sample bottle in this candle, so I think I'll melt it down and add more wax to see if it's better that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharon in KY Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Does candlewic have sample sizes and I'm just not seeing them on their site?Love Wild Cherry from Candlewic, smells like Black Cherries and throws great in soy.

Debra Phelps Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Millcreek Candle Supply has got a really strong one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sndfrddy Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 Well, I'm not sure what's going on. I tried pouring AH , NG, and Candle Science again at a lower percentage (6%). Then tried all using all different sizes of wicks. Nothing. Then tried NG again at at 7%. Nothing. I don't get it. I do smell NG quite a bit when I put it out but only then. I have a customer that has requested this scent. In the past she comes to my yearly Christmas open house and buys lots of pine and lots of Snowtop toasted almond and cherries but has said if I coud find a black cherry she's buy them all up. I guess I'll have the snowtop for for her again. Was just hoping I'd get a BC for her this time. I may have to try some other ones but it won't be in time for Open House. I don't usually buy any of my oils fro AH, CS, or NG so maybe that's the problem. But I've also never bought from candlewic, the candlemakers store, or Millcreek. The only thing I buy from JS is Chestnuts and Brown Sugar. I have good luck with Peaks, WSP, FOC, some Flickers, some WYW. Thank you everyone for trying to help. I appreciate it.

Traveler Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hi,Try Willowwoods Black Cherry. www.2wwoods.com.I also had the worst time trying to get Black Cherry to throw in 6006. (I too tried NG, BCN, BCS, CS and JS.) It was frustrating. No hot throw that any of my friends and family could smell.I tested them starting at 6% and slowly worked up to 8%.Willowwoods hit it right on the mark at 8%. I have no idea why it throws in my 6006 when the other Black Cherry samples did not. (I LOVED the black cherry samples from NG and CS!) Oh well. That is why we test and test...Good luck!
