soycrazy Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Is there a way to harden up soy wax for tarts? I know stearic might help, but how much? I read 5 tablespoons pp, but not sure if that is correct. I tried it and still came out crumbly. I have the 100% wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 maybe use some soy piller wax in with your regular soy....or use one of the para-soy tart blends??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Yeah, if you want to keep it all soy, I'd try a pillar wax or stearic, otherwise, add some paraffin. I'm not familiar with tweaking soy with stearic, though, just paraffin pillar wax.The thing about tarts is that you don't want them so hard that they take forever to melt, but you don't want them so soft that they smudge up and look horrid in the package. A little tweaking and you'll find what makes you happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
