A candle that burns longer and cleaner

Soya wax is chosen for more than just the ‘natural’ label. Candles made from itburn 1.5–2 times longer than paraffin candlesandproduceminimal soot, so the flame burns evenly and the container and the wall behind it remain clean. The flakes melt faster and more evenly than block wax, andthe fact that it only solidifies at 42 °Cleavesplenty of time to add fragrance and pour the wax into the mould. The material isbiodegradable and entirely plant-based—pure nature, right from the very start of your candle.

What the wax is used for:

Making candles in containers – glass jars, ceramic mugs, metal tins
Classic and scented candles
Coloured candles – the wax absorbs colourants added whilst melting
Craft workshops and DIY hobbies

How to use:

1. Measure out the required amount of wax flakes and place them in a melting pot.
2. Melt the wax in a bain-marie, using the double boiler method, whilst monitoring the temperature with a thermometer.
3. Once completely melted, remove the pot from the heat source and add the fragrance oil and colouring, stirring until combined.
4. Prepare the final container – secure the wick to the base at the bottom and position it vertically using a stabiliser.
5. Pour the wax into the container and leave it to set completely at room temperature, away from draughts.
6. Once set, trim the wick to the desired length.

Storage: Store in a dry and cool place, in a tightly sealed container, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.

Precautions:

Only melt the wax in a bain-marie and do not leave it unattended.
Do not overheat the wax or allow it to smoke.
