Guest guest Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 that basicly is happen if the beeswax (hard wax) is % at most and than if the balm drys quick or comes in huge temp changing. if you use an formulation wich is an bit less solid (softer) than it will not happen. sonja ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ FireHazard Jewelry by Sonja Voss http://www.firehazardbeads.etsy.com http://www.firehazard.1000markets.com/ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Cracked Balms I have a customer complaining about a paw balm I make that is cracking in the tin. I believe this may be due to cold temps, but was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with a similar beeswax-based product & if there is a way to prevent it from happening. Thanks, Jen E.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 If she left the lid off it could happen. Has happened with a couple of mine... I just have them set the tin on a warm surface and it goes back to normal (UNLESS I've put it in a plastic container) gini > > I have a customer complaining about a paw balm I make that is cracking in the tin.
