Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the melting point of these natural soy wax flakes?
A: These natural soy wax flakes have a typical melting point of approximately 50–55°C (122–131°F), making them easy to melt and work with for DIY candle making at home. Always use a double boiler and avoid overheating.
Q: Can I add fragrance oils and essential oils to these soy wax flakes?
A: Absolutely! Because these soy wax flakes are additive-free, they are highly receptive to fragrance oils and essential oils. A typical fragrance load of 6–10% works well. Always add fragrance after removing from heat and when the wax has cooled slightly to around 65–70°C for best results.
Q: Are these soy wax flakes suitable for container candles or pillar candles?
A: These soy wax flakes are best suited for container and jar candles, as pure soy wax has a softer texture. For freestanding pillar candles, a harder wax blend or additives like stearin may be recommended to improve structure.
Q: How much wax do I need for a candle project?
A: A general rule is that the wax weight will roughly equal the volume of your container. For example, a 200ml jar typically needs around 150–170g of soy wax flakes. The 500g size is great for multiple candles or larger batch projects.
