]> http://chandlerguild.com/blog/105 en http://chandlerguild.com/node/294 <p>I am just starting to use the votive blend to make votives and tarts. I am having trouble with sink holes in my votives. What temperature or texture should the wax be when pouring it into the votive molds?Should I warm the molds before pouring the wax into them? Any help on making votives will be greatly appreciated ! Also, Has anyone tried making the dipped bears with soy wax yet? I have some customers asking me to make them.</p> Candle Production and Quality SIG The Chandler Guild Community Mon, 05 Jan 2004 07:24:05 -0500 http://chandlerguild.com/node/96 <p>I am having trouble with sink holes and cracking on top of my candles when they cool. Some batches turn out fine while most are doing this. I have tried pouring at warmer temperatures and pouring at a slushy stage. When should I pour so I don't have this problem?</p> Mon, 28 Jul 2003 02:28:18 -0400
