What type of candle wax
do we use and why?
Our
candles are made of top-grade soy wax, including the NVSoy™ wax
developed by Candlewealth
International and other top quality soy wax products
from other top manufacturers. Each brand of soywax we use,
we research very carefully, so we can deliver
a superior product that has a longlasting scent throw, a
low melting point, and a long duration burn time. We will
not purchase what we feel is an inferior wax to cut corners or
do anything else that will compromise the integrity and quality
of our end product.
Soywax
is derived from the oil of the soybeans grown by American farmers
states such as Iowa and Alabama. Each batch of candles
is made by our family in our home kitchen and undergoes numerous
tests in order to ensure that you receive the very best quality
scented candle we can produce. Wick selection is appropriate for
its container to give you the best burn time and scent throw possible. In
the end you get an American product made by an American family!
Our candles burn from
edge to edge of your container to give you the best quality burn
available and these candles burn on average 10 hours per ounce.
We pour all of our candles at a low temperature, stirring often
during the cooling process to ensure that the scent at the bottom
of your candle will be as pleasing as it was when you first lit
it. Our wicks are completely lead free and we have over
70 different scents to select from and are always adding more. If
you have a favorite scent that we do not have, please email
us and we will be glad to obtain the scent and do a candle
to your specifications. Custom orders are welcome
at any time. The same goes for our soaps - if you have seen
a particular soap design or candle design we do not offer, please
contact us and let us know what you need. We will do our
best to find it for you!
Candles and soap will
vary slightly in appearance. Some fragrances and colors
will produce a creamy looking item, while others will produce
a white "frosting" effect to them. This is a characteristic
of this natural wax and is perfectly normal. It does not affect
the candle or soap in any way other than how it looks, and is
not considered a flaw.
