justajesuschick Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I know. So far I have just made trays of brittle. I am intrigued by a cute little daisy Wilton silicone mold just to try (I think that I can see that this wax making thing is a slippery slope! haha!).I am certain most of you use professional molds or something more elaborate which I do not need. I can get some Wilton at Michael's or Hobby Lobby or through Amazon. Would you suggest something else fro me to just try?Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Wilton's are an excellent grade silicone - they work beautifully. As long as it is oven safe I'll use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksranch Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I've got a couple that I use... just be careful how hot your wax is when you pour it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beezy Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I love Wilton molds.. If you have a Joann's Fabric by you and own a Smart Phone, You should download their app.. They have 50% off coupons like once a week it. I just bought a Wilton 4 cavity Mini Loaf pan (can be used for soap or tart loaves), for $5.00 with my coupon!

Beezy Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Also, Check your local Dollar Stores/Dollar Tree.. They usually have rubber/silicone ice cube molds you can use to make tarts.. They're a bit smaller.. but for a Dollar.. Well worth it...I see RE is adding some.. I got the same exact Scull and Cross Bones one for only $1.00 last Fall.

justajesuschick Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 So, I went to retailmenot.com and printed off a 50% one item coupon for Joann and snuck out of work over lunch. I went VERY safe and got the 12 mini muffin silicone pan. How can I go wrong with that simple shape?Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanetsCandles Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Wilton silicone molds are excellent for wax. And so are a lot of ice cube silicone molds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megandgarr Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 That is what I use for my tarts. I use the one for the brownie bites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 That is the one I am getting tomorrow. I liked that it was 24 cavity. I did fine with the mini muffin one so now I trust myself with more.Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolcibugie Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Be careful: silicone molds can make tiny air bubbles on the surface of your candle, and it's not easy to avoid it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
