    Default Help! Yankee Tarts?

    I just got a tart warmer and some tarts as a gift. But, I have a few questions. Can you reuse the tarts once they have been melted and are re-hardened? How do you get the melted and re-hardened tarts out of the warmer???? Are there any good, inexpensive places to buy tarts?

    Cheryl, I have one too and just keep using the tart until the smell is gone. To get it out, let it harden and take something sharp, tip of a knife or even a toothpick and it will pop right out.

    I don't know if there are any uses for them once the smell is gone. But I would think you could add a couple of drops of essential oil to it when in liquid form to make it last longer.

    Really cheap place for tarts is ???? a place on the net. I forgot the name of the site. I'll get it for you and get back to you on it.

    I use yankee tarts. I use each 1, 2X. An easy way to get the tart out after using is to put the burner in the freezer (after the wax has harden) for a few min the tart should pop right out.

    Tarts are a great way to go and adding oil to get the scent back is great. The yankees are a little more expensive but well worth the money. The scent lasts so much longer and is a much better scent than most tarts.
    Jar candles especially yankee candles are awesome as well. I prefer them over tarts. They burn for a very very long time and have the most wonderful scents available.
