Melting Fuzion. What Temperature Is It Originally Poured At?

Hi Mike.

I have three almost empty Mini-Fuzions and I want to melt them down to pour into an empty push up container.

What is the temperature that it is heated to for it's original pour at the Wolfgang factory?

I have never really worried about the temps when I have poured my plain old nubas before. I just heated them in a double boiler until the last little piece melted.

But we are talking about Fuzion here and I want to treat it like Royalty.

I think that would fall under,

Proprietary Information


If it were me, I would try to use the least heat possible...


Good luck with that...

I would honestly just use the double boiler again and put a candy thermometer in the water and heat it as slowly as possible until you can get it to a semi liquid state so you can put it in the other container.

I definitely wouldn't want to go to high as you might break it or something like you can with sauces

Also, it never hurts to ask. Email them and tell them what you want to do and see if they will at least get you in the ballpark

doesn't matter, just heat it to the point that you can get it out of one jar and into the others...

I'd just try and get them all into 1 container first (even if they are still chunks of it) and then once they are all there maybe think about a very small amount of extra heat to meld them together a little.
