Soy Burning Instructions & Information

Soy wax is wax that is produced from the oil of the soybean. Soy wax is better to burn than paraffin wax because it does not release the harmful carcinogens that low quality, non - food grade paraffin wax can. Paraffin wax is made from the by-product of crude oil. Which is the sludge that is left over when they make gasoline.

When used properly our soy wax candles will not produce visible soot. They will burn twice as long and more evenly and at a much lower temperature than paraffin based candles.

Soybean wax is biodegradable and can easily be removed from glass, tin and other material for recycling. Soy wax washes out with soap and hot water! The use of soybeans creates important economic growth for the U.S. farming community.

Burning Instructions for 100% Soy Wax Candles:

The general rule of thumb for burn time is that the candle should burn 1 hour for every inch of the candle's diameter. For example if a candle is 2.5" wide it needs to burn 2.5 hours to get an even melt pool.

100% Soy Wax burns at a lower temperature and holds more scent than an average candle. Therefore they may need to burn for an additional hour or more to achieve an even melt pool. Letting your candle burn this additional time to get a even melt pool gives you two things.
#1 Better Value -it ensures that your candle will use all the wax!
#2 More Scent Throw - your candle is giving off as much scent into your home as possible!

Trimming your wick to 1/4" on ALL candles is an important step in burning candles and is most often overlooked!

4 GREAT reasons to ALWAYS trim you candle wicks:

#1- VALUE -Trim your wicks to 1/4" to make sure it burns at the proper rate. The larger the flame is, the quicker it is consuming the wax which means less time to enjoy your candle!

#2 - SCENT - Trim your wicks to1/4" to make sure you get ALL the scent the candle maker intended you to enjoy!

#3 - SOOT - Trimming your wick properly will help reduce the amount of soot given off into the air. Every candle produces some soot, but it can be drastically reduced to almost none when a soy candle is properly trimmed & centered.

#4 - FIRE SAFETY- Last but most important is the fact that candles are fire hazards when used improperly. Trimming your wick reduces the chances of your container being overheated and cracking.

Never burn your candle on or near a flammable surface. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Never burn a candle where a child can reach it.
