Expert Tip

Pour a first quantity up to 3/4 of the tube. When the mixture has cooled (a few minutes only) there is a small hole in the center, then pour the rest of the quantity up to the edge.

Once the mixture is poured, use a paper towel to absorb the excess in the cup. DO NOT PUT UNDER WATER, before having wiped it well. Clean with very hot, soapy water.
