Clean burn, great scent throw. Let cure 3–7 days for best fragrance.

Step-by-step recipe

  1. 1

    Weigh 840 g of soy wax (29.6 oz).

  2. 2

    Melt the wax slowly using a double boiler or wax melter to 185°F. Never leave melting wax unattended.

  3. 3

    Stir gently and monitor with a thermometer. Remove from heat once you reach 185°F.

  4. 4

    When the wax cools to 185°F, add 67 g of fragrance oil (2.4 oz) and stir slowly for 2 minutes to bind.

  5. 5

    Let the wax cool further. When it reaches 135°F, pour slowly into your 4 containers.

  6. 6

    Place the CD 12 (medium) wick centered using a wick bar or straw. 2.5"–3" containers.

  7. 7

    Let cure undisturbed for 24 hours, then rest 3–7 days before burning for best results.

Never leave melting wax unattended. Keep away from water (it can splatter). If wax catches fire, smother it — never use water.
