Abstract
A device and method for removing hot molten wax or other material from a receptacle for a meltable tart or the like. The device has a heat resistant body formed of a material that is of sufficient porosity to absorb or soak up the hot molten wax or other material in the receptacle when it is positioned therein and to retain its structural integrity so that it can be disposed of after it has absorbed or soaked up the hot molten wax or other material.
