misspam56 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Has anyone had this problem? I am using freezer paper to line my wood soap molds and it gets all crinkly and wrinkled when the soap is taken out. Unfortunately the soap is too. Just wondering what else I could do to avoid this problem. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerridwen Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I always hated trying to line my wooden molds, a ugly fight would take place every time! I switched to my Woodfield's silicone lined molds and have lived happily ever after. More expensive, but totally worth it to me.Sorry, I never found out the secret to smooth lining with freezer paper. Hopefully someone else can help.

Toni S. Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Check out the tutorial on this forum, it's wonderful and you'll get perfect lined molds every time! I used to have one heck of a time until I followed the tut! HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kestagano04 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 This is the process I use to line my 3 lb log mold. I never have any issues with wrinkling.http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=US#/watch?v=Jbm6tXKuZsI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 If you measure carefully and fold carefully and tape securely, the paper comes out smooth as a baby's butt and so does the soap. I find freezer paper to be very easy with which to work and it causes less wrinkling than does plastic. A silicon liner is the cadillac of liners, but there are other solutions that work just as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 It helps to make a template of the inside bottom of your mold. Cardboard will work. Make the folds for the various tutorials available folding around the bottom template. It works quickly and accurately every time. I've also been successful using 2 separate pieces of freezer paper placed over one another to make a cross. I don't worry about the corners since my wooden molds are fairly well seasoned. Easy peasy.

Scented Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I have logs that fit snuggly into my log molds and work well to mold the freezer paper around. There's a template for one of my smaller slab molds that works pretty well too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
