I love the soy wax. The all-soy is approved by the FDA for toiletries.

There is also a votive blend that releases well from molds, a

pillar blend which I have not tried, and a container candles blend.

 

Soy wax which produces no petro-carbon soot. Soy Wax Candles burn clean,

soot-free, and lead-free.

 

As an added bonus, soy wax is water soluble, and thus easy to remove with

soap and water!

 

Soy Wax Candles are an alterative to traditional paraffin wax candles and

burn up to 2 times longer.

 

Soy wax is clean, safe and non-toxic.

 

I have purchase from Bitter Creek Candle Supply in Wisconsin. From

Enchanted Lights in MN.

 

I have been very please with both. These soy candles are goopey when they

melt down

so they must set in a tight fitting container. ie tight fitting glass

votive holder for votives.

The scent throw is good. Temperature of pour is extremely important to

avoid pits and craters.

 

Let me know how y'all like it.

Janet, with the wax I use, DK, I brought to 170 degrees and poured at

155-160. What is the high and pour temp for the soy? Deonia

The votive heat to 180 degrees cool & pour at 170 degrees.

Container wax heat to 150 cool & pour at 115 degree.

Flaked all-soy heat 180 pour at 110.

 

Have fun with it.
