We have found Soy Wax to be the best choice for candlemaking.

Soy Wax vs. Paraffin Wax

       Soy wax holds fragrance better so our candles and melts throw more scent and last longer.

Soy candles produce practically no soot so your house and your lungs stay cleaner.

      Soy candles burn slower and last between 30% and 50% longer than a paraffin candle of the same size.
 
Soy is much cooler burning than other waxes.

Soy is Vegan - no animal products used or animal testing.

      Soy candles support U.S. soybean farmers whereas paraffin candles may be manufactured with foreign oil.

      Soy wax does not require any additives, so finished product is more natural.

All of our wicks are coreless or cotton core.  No metal or zinc cores are used at Amanda’s Candles.
