My most favourite cream wedges have got a sticky, melted opal fruit stuck to them. How can I get it out??

Help!

You could use something oily like mayonnaisse - works on sticy stuff on furniture etc. Although be careful that you don't end up with a wopping great oil stain there instead - perhaps do a patch test first!

DO NOT USE OIL! Put them in a bag in the freezer so the opal fruit goes hard and then try to chip/pull it off. Works with chewing gum, anyway!

What are they made of?

eucalyptus oil gets rid of greasy/sticky stains and doesn't leave a mark on most fabrics.
