Love love the primitive pantry cakes and blackened beeswax candles I just did

I have been obsessed lately with the old jello and candy molds. I made the bunny from my pantry cake recipe (you don't want to know how many I've tried till I found one I liked ) as I'm afraid to try doing wax. I have no idea how to keep it from running out of them as they aren't sealed tight. Anyone have any tips? I would love to try it as I have several old candy molds. I did do the blackened bees wax in the jello molds and LOVE them. Anyone use other waxes? I did try canning wax but so far like the bees wax better. I also rubbed both in spices to give them that perfect primitive look.

    Hi
    I was searching today for directions to do just this! I found two molds at the Thrift store yesterday....one jello for a heart and the other a two piece rabbit that looks very much like your picture! Could you share your recipe or do you sell it??? I was just going to try parrafin as I don't have the bees wax on hand and isn't it pretty expensive??? I have made "cakes" in the past and I think it had coffee grounds in it--will that work?? I so hope you see this and find the time to respond. THANKS, Sandy

    I have been looking for directions on making blackened beeswax and can't find a thing! Are you willing to share or is there someone that sells instructions on the process?
