How to use & care
Using Wax is straightforward, but adhering to best practices will ensure the best results. Begin by melting the wax slowly in a double boiler or a dedicated wax melter. Aim for a temperature of approximately 160°F (71°C) for optimal fragrance oil addition and pouring. Overheating the wax can affect its properties, so monitor the temperature carefully.
Once melted, add your chosen fragrance oil and any desired dyes, stirring gently for a few minutes to ensure even distribution. Pour the wax into your prepared candle vessels, making sure your wicks are properly centered and secured. Allow the candles to cure for at least 24-48 hours, or ideally up to two weeks, before burning. This curing period allows the fragrance oil to fully bind with the wax, resulting in a stronger hot throw. Store unused Wax in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its quality and prevent premature degradation.
Questions, answered
What is the ideal melting temperature for Wax?
For best results, we recommend melting Wax to approximately 160°F (71°C). This temperature ensures proper fragrance oil incorporation and a smooth pour, leading to excellent jar adhesion and a professional finish.
Can this soy wax be used for pillar candles or only container candles?
Wax is primarily formulated for container candles due to its excellent jar adhesion properties. While some experienced candlemakers might adapt it for blends used in pillars, it is best suited for vessels to achieve optimal results and prevent issues like cracking or crumbling.
How much fragrance oil should I add to this Wax?
The recommended fragrance load for Wax typically ranges from 6% to 10% of the wax weight. However, this can vary based on the specific fragrance oil and desired scent intensity. Always conduct small tests to determine the perfect ratio for your specific fragrance and desired throw.

Yes, this soy wax is an excellent choice for environmentally conscious crafters. It is made from all-natural, renewable soybeans, is biodegradable, and offers a cleaner burn compared to traditional paraffin waxes. It is also ethically produced, contains no animal products, and is never tested on animals.
What is the recommended curing time for candles made with Wax?
For optimal fragrance throw and candle performance, we recommend a curing time of at least 24-48 hours. However, many candlemakers find that allowing candles to cure for up to two weeks can significantly enhance the scent throw, as it allows the fragrance oil to fully bond with the wax.
