    Soy wax: the natural ally for your candle creations

Versatile and easy to work with, it offers excellent adhesion to glass and perfectly retains essential oils or fatty fragrances. Whether for decorative candles or massage candles, this 100% natural wax will allow you to make unique and eco-responsible creations.



    Soy wax has many benefits. Natural and eco-friendly, it is made from hydrogenated soybean oil, paraffin-free, pesticide-free and GMO-free, making it a healthy and sustainable alternative. It also excels in holding fragrances, perfectly retaining essential oils and fatty fragrances for subtly or intensely scented candles. Its versatility allows it to be suitable for different types of candles, whether decorative candles, jar candles or even massage candles. In addition, it is compatible with liquid or powder dyes, which can be easily integrated to personalize your creations.

    Making soy wax candles is easy if you follow a few basic steps. Start by melting the wax by heating it to between 160 and 200 degrees Fahrenheit (71.1 and 93.3 degrees Celsius), stirring regularly to avoid overheating. It is important not to exceed 200 degrees Fahrenheit (93.3 degrees Celsius) to preserve the natural color of the wax. Once melted, add your essential oils, fragrances, or colorants and mix well. Wait for the wax to cool to between 120 and 165 degrees Fahrenheit (48.9 and 73.8 degrees Celsius) before pouring it into your containers. Make sure your jars or molds are at room temperature or slightly warm for better adhesion. Let your candles harden for at least 12 hours before using them.

    For perfect candles, here are some helpful tips. If your candles are larger than 3.5 inches in diameter, use a double wick to ensure an even melt. Soy wax works especially well with glass containers, providing a smooth, crisp finish.
