Candles bad!

Well I have tried four times now. Some of them have come out of the mould nicely, but all of them have developed a large gap around the wick, which would make them unusable as they would collapse as they got hot.
So I am giving up!
The silicon mould I have with the little bees on works really well, so maybe next season I will save up for another one of those in a different style - they are really expensive!
Disappointed and I hate being beaten by inanimate objects!
Maybe I should have used something more positive for my 1500th Blip but that’s life!
