The other essential features of soy candles are that they burn slower, cleaner and are aromatic. They are harmless and less likely to cause an allergic reaction. They are popular with environmentally conscious consumers. Soy wax is made from soybeans. It is recyclable. It is also a renewable resource.
To make soy candles, a person has to combine soy wax, dye, and perfume. It is ideal to start with a good amount of one pound of soy wax, one ounce of fragrant oil and a few drops of dye. The use of dye requires judgment, to determine the quantity of color required to get the desired shade. In order to mold a candle it is important to heat the material, to the temperature that ensures a perfect blend. The molten fluid is then set in a mold. When the wax cools, the wick should be trimmed.
