As an avid candle burner I started making candles for myself, family and friends. I have burned all types of candles and I will have to say that soy is the best. Soy wax is made from a renewable resource. An excellent way to support American Farmers. Our candles are made from Natural Soybean Wax with all cotton wicks. (no lead) To keep our candles as natural as possible we do not add any color dyes to them. The Natural color will be white or a buttery off-white depending on the fragrance oils. This way your favorite scent can be placed anywhere in the home without the worry of the candle color not matching.
Soy candles burn cleaner, but all candles will product soot (black smoke) if they are not cared for properly. The best way to reduce this is to keep wicks trimmed and out of a drafty area. Soy wax burns cooler and has a lower melt point so remember to keep them out of the direct sunlight as it may cause them to "sweat". Soy wax will clean up with soap and water if it is spilled. Even though it is biodegradable it will clog your drain. So keep them away from places such as Kitchen and Bathroom sinks. |
