[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Use good crayons. Crayola, not dollar store crayons. Put in low oven (250) until it melts fully and then take out. When it's cool you can pop them out. We had better luck with silicon molds than hard muffin tins. But the silicon molds are hard to clean after they've had crayons in there. Practice ahead of time so at the party you have it down! That way you'll have extra crayons to give to the kids if they don't work out.[/quote] OP here. Thanks! We definitely have silicone molds ready and I used them before, but not all of the crayons broke free right. I've ordered a large box of Crayolas so hopefully that does the trick. Now that I think about it, we probably did use cheap crayons before. Good idea about practicing before and having crayons ready if the ones at the party are an epic fail. Btw, I read a tip about putting the crayons in warm water- apparently the wrappers will peel right off.[/quote]
