food grade paraffin wax needed

If it's just to seal it for a day or two, would clarified butter do the job?

i really wanted to keep it longer so not sure if butter would do that, i will have a go at making some later today just for Christmas, thanks anyway for the reply.

yes Jamie she did say i would last upto a year with the wax seal. you can get the wax online but you also have to pay p&p, think thats what im going to have to do, then wait till after Christmas to make a bigger batch.

Hello, i,ve looked all over for this, Boots ,Holland and Barret,Julien Graves, Boots other chemists and health food shops, cook shops and even the local W.I. and they all looked at me as if i was a Guppy out of water. Regards SLUGGER
