Do you know what page of the thread gives the directions for cinnamon rolls?

Make the bread recipe. After you let it rise the first time and roll out the dough for bread, slather it with softened butter then sprinkle brown sugar on it then sprinkle cinnamon on it then nuts if you want then roll it up like you would for bread but then cut it into rolls about every 1 1/2 or so. Put the cut side down in a big pan, (I think I buttered mine) and bake. Did that make any sense?

And there ya go!!!! Perfect, the only part she left out was ... send some to Tanya!!

Be safe everyone.

I've done a bit of candle making here and there. I only do beeswax candles...

I need to buy myself a portable burner unit so I can make some more. I will NEVER make them in my kitchen again. Talk about messy.

My box of candle molds hasn't been used in a couple of years. I hadn't moved my portable burner unit from the other house. I think he whose name shall remain unspoken claimed it was broken and threw it away. So...must buy another...

Ahhh. No, more like one of the characters from the movie called Jack***. (I was edited on the boards for using that word once before, so...)

So is there a candle making book or something oyu recommend Roz? How did you get started? I have a portable burner. I understand you don't want to use your main stove?

Nope, I don't have a book. Spray your molds with silicone spray, though. It'll make them release better. You'll need to make sure you buy the right size wicking for the diameter of the candle, too. MAKE SURE you don't skimp on the cost of wicking. It's worth it to get something decent. Ignore any book that tells you to substitute something else or you are just wasting your time and money.

I like the soft, rubbery molds better than hard molds. However, they are SUPER expensive. My molds are from Mann Lake. You can download a copy of their catalog from their website. (They are a beekeeping supply company).

They may have some instruction books available. They aren't hard to make, though.

The beeswax is pretty pricey. You can save money by doing the final cleaning yourself, but it takes time & is a bit annoying. If you buy "uncleaned" beeswax, they should have done one rough straining to get out the BIG debris (like full dead bees) but there still might be some small debris. You'll have to google the cleaning process -- been years since I've done it.

I'll never make candles in my kitchen again. Stray bits of wax are AWFUL to clean up. I'd make them in the garage, basement, or outside. IN fact, I'd probably make them out in the workshop.
