RE: Uses for Paraffin Wax
Jake - I totally relate, as I just bought out 5 lb.s of paraffin wax because it was being discontinued at the store and was on mega-sale. It says people use it in canning, and this season I plan on canning more of my veggies from the garden. I intend to explore this further. Everyone's advice is very helpful! Thanks!

If you melt 40g of paraffin wax in a small pan. Then mix in 40g of sugar, and 60g of potassium nitrate into the melted wax. Pour onto foil, wrap, mold to shape, add a fuse, ignite, and poof you have a fun smoke bomb for the forth of July! :)

Paraffin is poison

Do not use large amounts of paraffin in your chocolate.
Paraffin can cause intestinal blockage and this is known as Paraffin poisoning.
Intestinal blockage caused by eating too much paraffin can cause infection and death. Treatment may require surgery.
The less poison you put in your body the better.

When you melt cooking chocolate, you use the paraffin to help it liquify better, and it gets a better texture and color. You can give something in chocolate to someone this christmas! :D

hi im a beauty student and we use paraffin wax for hand and facial treatment. just dip your hands in the melted wax and wrap your hands in plastic bags with towels around them to keep the heat in for 15 minutes and then peel off and you can re use when ever its good for circulation and keeps your hands soft

RE: Uses for Paraffin Wax
Usually much less paraffin than that is used in candy making. I'd use 1 Tbsp. (grated) at the most for 1 bag of chocolate chips. It helps the chcolate set and gives it a shine. I don't think eating a lot of paraffin is good for you.
After looking at several recipes, I've seen several that use that much paraffin, some of them just dip the candy in heated parafin to give it a coating.
Here's a link about paraffin as a coating with some warnings:

parrafin melts at a low heat, and is very good for your skin, melt it and dip your hands in it, let it dry, then peel it off. makes skin very soft and smooth

You can also use paraffin wax and rub it on your chest of drawer or kitchen and bathroom drawer sliders to help it slide better. Works well on wood and metal. Saves wear on your drawers.
Would probably even work on sliding closet doors as well.

RE: Uses for Paraffin Wax
I have used parafin wax for firestarters too. But my FAVORITE use is making "Buckeyes". They are a chocolate covered peanut butter candy that looks like a buckeye (from the tree). These are always a favorite with family and friends.

RE: Uses for Paraffin Wax
Parafin wax can be melted and poured on top of jams to prevent mould from growing. Also add small amounts of parafin to melted chocolate to make it smooth and shiny for coating, dipping strawberries etc. But my best advice Jake, don't buy stuff at garage sales you have no use for!

RE: Uses for Paraffin Wax
Here's a reader's tip from our archive...
Cheap Fire Starters
During this cold period of the year, fire starters for your fireplace can be made by taking a paper egg carton (not the Styrofoam kind), your dryer lint and some paraffin wax. Put lint balls in the egg carton cup, pour melted paraffin wax over them. When wax has hardened, you can then cut each cup apart and use to start your fires. Works great for campfires also. This is a trick we learned from the Boy Scouts.
