Yaley Enterprises Candle Crafting Round Cylinder Metal Candle Mold, 3-Inch by 6-1/2-Inch

works great

finally able to make candles again - thank you

Fantastic!

I hate this thing so much.Twice I have tried to make a pillar candle and twice the candle has not released, despite my trying every tip included with the mold and every tip I read online.Complete waste of money and I have now thrown it away.

I'd agree with one of the other comments I've seen posted, in that this cylinder has a top to bottom seam from a solder joint and this seam leaves an ugly impression on the candle. I easily scraped the wax seam off the candle I made with this mold but there ARE seamless molds out there.As for the candle being stuck, the included instructions says that you should treat your mold with "release spray" before the first use. I guess it's something they also sell but you see that nowhere on the product page before buying the mold. One instructional video I found on YouTube says you should expect candles to get stuck in the mold until it is broken in, which he reckons will take about 3 uses. He suggests make a candle and then melting and reusing the same wax 3 times. After it releases easily, use a wick as normal. This is what I did and it finally worked on the second use but I put the already set candle in the fridge for an hour, which causes the candle to shrink just enough to release.Lastly I recommend being careful handling the mold since the sheet-metal edges feel somewhat sharp.

These are okay but luckily my candles are just for me and my family. I don't like the fact that I take my candles out and there's an imprint of a line from the inside of the molds.

My candles are still stuck in here. I have tried the freezer and just about every other suggestion on the internet to get them out without cutting the metal. That is my next option though.
