Gel Candle

How do i get rid of the bubbles when making a gel candle?

So my wife started making some candles and they look awesome, but some come out with a lot of bubbles and do not look so cool.

She did manage to make 2 without any bubbles but , what is a good techniche to get rid of them in the final product?

Should we just put them in the oven?

Try heating the mixture to a higher temperature to begin with, and then tap them on the counter top to force the bubbles up. If you are making multiple layers, do this after each layer. SLOWLY pour the wax in the container to minimize the bubbles in the first place. You can also heat the mold a bit to start with, which take the moisture and chill out of the container.

Just make sure not to burn yourself!
