aviator girl Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 My first inclination was to make this candle red which I did. However the more I thought about it I wonder if it would look better pink or layered with red and white or some time of swirl.Anyone make this one and have some suggestions on what you do?

LuminousBoutique Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 My first instinct would be layers of pinky/red and yellow/white. I do bath bomb cupcakes in it and I do a yellow "cake" and red/pink "frosting". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviator girl Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 I think you are right. The more I thought about shortcake I felt like it needed to have something else in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsie Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 I've been spending WAY too much time planning my daughter's birthday party, a Strawberry Shortcake theme (the cartoon character). When I read your question my first thought was, "that's easy, the colors are pink, red, green and white!" I cannot wait for this party and all the planning to be over!As for your question, I'd suggest three layers: yellow, then red, then white.

Candlebuddy Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 For Strawberry Shortcake, I like the candle to be white, then add strawberry embeds on top ... it looks really cute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I'm thinking of light golden cubes of cake, drizzles of red and splotches of white ... then again, I thought I had sated my craving for strawberry shortcake and it appears I haven't lol. I want some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviator girl Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 So many fun options. Looks like I am going to have fun playing. The strawberry embeds sounds cute candlebuddy. I looked at a couple of molds last week and the seemed like they were big strawberries so I might look some more for some smaller ones.Scented this thread is making me crave a nice strawberry shortcake myself. I should have made one today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I get my embeds from www.tropicalbreezecandles.net or www.longcaneprimitives.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mparadise Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I get mine from tropical breeze too. SUPER fast shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviator girl Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 I get my embeds from www.tropicalbreezecandles.net or www.longcaneprimitives.com. So you guys just buy the embeds already made? Do you just buy them unscented? I was thinking of making them myself but I guess this would probably be easier.Thanks for the links! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
