donna4909 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I finally made my first non-gel candle tonight, and it was a HUGE pain. Ugh, I am never buying slabs of wax again. This stuff is insanely hard to break. I spent 30 minutes just to break off about 1 pound of wax because I couldn't find a darn hammer. >_<I won't be doing big batches of candles or anything, just making a few for myself, and breaking off one pound at a time is just annoying. Can someone suggest a pelleted or flaked wax? I want something that I can just pour out, weigh, and melt. And it needs to be a pre-blend that doesn't need additives.
