Use a double boiler on your stove so you don’t burn the ingredients. Just add some water to saucepan and then place a heat proof bowl to sit inside. Your ingredients will melt in the bowl and will be a safe distance away from the direct heat. I use a glass Pyrex bowl for mine.

      I made these last night and divided the recipe into 3 equal parts I made pineapple, mint and sweet orange. I used 1 1/2 T of the beeswax and the texture turned out perfect they hardened enough perfectly for use in the twist up lip balm containers … this will be my go to recipe from now on. Thank you and Happy Holidays to you.
