ah-soy Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I use a 50/50 blend of votive and container wax for my tarts and pour them into clamshells and portion cups. My reason for mixing is to use up an entire case of votive wax that cracks badly when used alone. I also tried a 75/25 mix, but they didn't look good at all.They pop out of the molds well and have a great hot throw, but are a pain in the butt to get out of the warmer after melted. I have to either scrape them out or put in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.I posted this a couple of days ago and got a couple of replies but no solution so am posting again for the weekend crowd. Is there something I can add to the mix to get my tarts to pop out after used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I stick mine in the freezer. Or if I don't wish to wait I pour out the liquid wax and wipe the bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Pour out the liquid wax and wipe clean. Throw in a new tart.There was a thread exactly like this within the last couple of weeks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ah-soy Posted September 29, 2007 Author Share Posted September 29, 2007 Thank you both for your replies. I use those methods and am the one who posted the other thread, just didn't get an answer about an additive to help them release from the warmer without freezing etc. so tried again...sorry. I've searched and searched through many tart threads so perhaps there isn't an answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I use votive wax. They normally pop right out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
