Best Wax for Candles
This wax is so easy to work with I only purchase this brand now! Tops of candles come out so creamy and smooth it truly is a one pour wax for candle making. Holds a heavy scent load, (10%) with great CT/HT. When I first started working with this wax, I did have occasional sinkholes that I fixed easily with a heat gun. I live in Oklahoma where it is humid and found if I poured was between 135-145 F there were no sinkhole but just pure creamy white tops. I also found that you get a better hot throw if you let this wax sit for at least 5 days instead of just 24-48 hours. Will not buy any other.

One of my top favorites wax
This wax has quickly become one of my top favorites due to its exceptional ability to absorb fragrance oils. It allows me to enjoy the delightful aroma of the candle not only when it's lit, but also when it's not burning. Additionally, I find it incredibly convenient for experimenting with different liquid colors, as it provides excellent control and consistent results. I've been highly impressed with its performance when testing various wicks. It has truly elevated my candle-making endeavors to new heights.

Not bad but not great
This wax is very hard to get a correct wick. It does have a good hot throw but I never found a wick that I truly loved that work with us wax.

Fast shipping, good product
I was astounded that this was shipped via FedEx and not the usual channels, direct from the seller. So it arrived sooner than expected. I can’t wait to use the wax in my candle molds.

Fantastic container wax!
I love this wax and was so happy to find it on Amazon. This is by far one of the best container waxes out there. So easy to work with and has a phenomenal scent throw. Great jar adhesion and holds color beautifully. It’s good proof. I’ve been purchasing from a supplier that has been killing me in shipping fees so I am thrilled to have found this and will continue to purchase from this seller. It arrived much sooner than expected which was a bonus!
