What started out as making candles for my friends and family as gifts, has quickly become a hobby that I love.
The benefit of Soy Candles is cleaner burning - no toxins, carcinogens or pollutants which means it's less likely to trigger allergies. no petrol-carbon soot like you get from petroleum-based paraffin candles. longer lasting - soy wax burns cooler which means that you can enjoy your soy wax candle for generally 30-50% longer than a paraffin candle.
Soybeans are a renewable source, unlike paraffin, which consists of petroleum.
A few tips when burning your soy candle is to make sure you burn it for at least 1 Hour and no more than 4 hours, this will help prevent the soy from 'tunnelling', allowing the candle to burn evenly.
Please make sure that you cut the end of the wick prior to burning. Keeping the wick trimmed to 1/8 of an inch at all times helps control the amount of “fuel” or wax that is present. By keeping the amount of fuel limited, the flame will create ideal complete combustion where carbon particles are absorbed by the flame. This means less soot is formed while the candle is burning.
