Paraffin Wax Household Hint
Posted by Grandma Jeanne on August 29, 2006
When using paraffin wax to cover jellies and jams after putting in jars, just bend an empty can to make it like a pouring spout. Put the wax in the can and put in a pan of hot water to melt.
It isn’t necessary to clean the can after the wax hardens as it can be used over and over.
After rinsing off the jelly, used wax could be put back in the can and melted for reuse since it doesn’t spoil.

do you know why when i cover my jelly with paraffin it continues to leak a hole. next day i clean and rewax and new holes form as if there is pressure inside jar.
