WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SOY CANDLES
Soy candles are candles made from soy wax, which is a processed form of soybean oil. They are usually container candles, because soy wax typically has a lower melting point than traditional waxes, but can also be made into pillar candles if certain additives are mixed into the soy wax. All our candles are made with a 100% soy wax. Our company does not use any additives so all of our candles are in reusable containers. Most candles are also color free, except our Lattes.

Soy Candles are cleaner burning then paraffin candles - no toxins, carcinogens or pollutants, which means it's less likely to trigger allergies.
