[QUOTE="SeaGoat, post: 272952, member: 1136"]Ugh, all this time I thought these were chocolate molds (mostly because thats what everyone else called them).. I mean, I knew the metal ones were chocolate, I just never understood these and found it kind of odd and gross people would pour chocolate into them.. But now that I know what they are Im hungry and want to use them! (and of course all the ones I love are $250+ :sour:) I found one today in a thrift store, except this one is a dark brown wax. It has been used, more than once (maybe more like 500x :rolleyes:), but its still cute. Its a fancy man in a fancy carriage getting pulled by his fancy horse. Im reckoning the wax ones were made because they could be mass produced due to the easy stamping of the wax vs carving carving of the wood(?) My question is.. How can you tell if one is vintage vs antique (wax or wood)? Whats the best way to clean these for use?[/QUOTE]
