Homemade Sugar Wax

• 1). Combine sugar, water and juice in a sauce pan.
  
  
• 2). Attach the candy thermometer to the side of the sauce pan and do not allow the measuring end to come into contact with any metal.
  
  
• 3). Over low heat, slowly bring the mixture up to 250 degrees but do not allow it to boil. Stir the mixture constantly with a wood or silicone spoon to evenly distribute the heat.
  
  
• 4). Check the consistency. If it is too watery, add 1/4 cup of sugar to the mixture at a time and continue heating. Heat until it reaches the desired consistency.
  
  
• 5). Allow the mixture to cool slightly before pouring into the Mason jar. Use a tongue depressor or Popsicle stick to scrape as much of the wax as possible into the jar.
