Wax melts are a fantastic new way to enjoy the wonderful fragrance of 100% soy wax candles in areas where an open flame would not be safe or acceptable. Perhaps a candle would be a pleasant and calming effect at work, but open flames are not allowed. Now you can have the wonderful scent of a candle without the flame.
 
A wax melt is a wick-less candle that is melted in a wax melt warmer. Candle wax melt warmers are powered by electricity and heat the candle soy wax. As the soy wax melts the fragrance oil in the wax is released. The candle wax melt warmer produces no flame so it is safe and easy to use.
 
Soy wax melts come in many fragrances and are easy to use. When you are done using the candle wax melt, just turn the wax melt warmer off. The next time you are back in that room, just turn it back on and the wax melt will begin to fill the air again with fragrance.
 
As with normal wick candles, the secret to obtaining the best scent is in the quality of the ingredients. We use only the finest 100% soy wax in our candle wax melts. Our fragrance oils are chosen from only the best and are never cut or blended with other oils or fillers. The finest candle wax melts are made with only uncut fragrance oils. Pure uncut fragrance oils produce the best scent through out your house or workplace. Before we pour any candles or wax melts, our fragrance oils are blended with the soy wax. This ensures that the candle wax melt will release the fragrance oil evenly over the life of the wax melt. Also, our candles and wax melts are handmade which ensures the highest quality craftsmanship.
 
An advantage of 100% soy wax wick candles are that they are very clean burning, and give off far less black soot than paraffin wax candles. However, because wax melts are not burned, our candle wax melts do not give off any soot. This can be an advantage for those people who are sensitive to any kind of burning flame. Now you can have the wonderful fragrance without any smoke or soot.

Our candle wax melts are made only from 100% soy wax. Soy wax is a recent development and is environmentally friendly. Made from hydrogenated soybean oil, soy wax supports American farmers and produces one more great use for the miracle soybean. Soy wax has been shown to be cleaner burning and longer lasting than other common candle making material. Be sure to choose only 100% soy wax when purchasing candles and wax melts.

Handmade candles are generally considered the highest value in candles. Quality is king when it comes to candles. When a customer purchases a candle, the decision is always a mixture of emotion and cool calculation. Everybody likes to get a good deal, but a poor quality candle is not worth any money saved. A common perception of a candle is a warm, relaxing light accompanied by a pleasant scent that evokes calmness. Often candles are associated with memories of holidays past with an image of a flickering flame and enticing smells from the kitchen.
 
The reality is that all candles are not equal. A customer might purchase a candle and find that the end result is not what they expected. Perhaps, the candle burns a steady flickering of soot. The aroma from the candle may be less than expected or perhaps not a pleasing scent. These lower quality, machine-made candles are sometimes the end result of a process focused on cost cutting and time savings. A hand made candle is more likely to be a work done with care and attention to detail.
 
As with many items, the value in a handmade candle is found in the attention to detail that comes with craftsmanship. The most prized pottery and silver work are not those made by machine, but those pieces made by hand. Craftsmanship is the mark of a master and a hand made candle is part of that long tradition. A craftsman cares about quality and will take the time to make sure that each piece is special.
 
Quality in all things is the only way to ensure the end result is the best candle money can buy. Only the finest 100% soy wax will produce a clean burning candle. A handmade candle is a product that has been manufactured by a person who takes the time to verify that each part of the candle making process is going exactly right. A craftsman ensures that the wax is blended properly and is poured at just the right temperature. Experience with the craft is what creates true quality and the best end result.
 
Candles manufactured in a factory are made from ingredients that have been processed and mixed by machine. When wax and fragrance oil are blended by machine, the factory candle maker may not take the extra moment to ensure that the fragrance has been fully mixed with the wax in order to obtain the best result when burning.
 
Whether discussing the ingredients in the candle or the process by which the candle is made, quality is the key to a positive customer experience. A handmade candle made from the finest 100% soy wax and uncut fragrance oils offers the best possible value. The end result is sure to be a pleasant experience.

Cheaper candles are made in massive quantities in factories where machines control the manufacturing process.

Our candles are the best soy candles available and are made only with the finest un-cut fragrance oils which is why our candle scents last so long.
 
In addition, only the best soy candles have fragrance oil blended throughout the wax before the candle is hand poured. In order to make sure the fragrance lasts the full life of the candle, we blend the fragrance oil with the soy wax before pouring. In this way, we ensure that our candles will remain highly fragrant the entire time they burn. Some manufacturers only put fragrance oil into the top of the candle. This saves money for the manufacturer but reduces the amount of scent the candle will produce. Once the top third of the candle has burned, the scent from the candle is gone.
 
When shopping for candles, remember the following tips. Look for one hundred percent soy wax. Soy wax burns longer and cleaner than any other type of candle wax. Look for un-cut fragrance oils and look for candles in small batches.

Candles have been a central part of life for thousands of years.  Seen burning in churches, homes and shops, candles are enjoyed the world over.  For some people candles evoke memories of holidays past and time spent with family.  Others find solace and relaxation in the glow and scent of a candle. Long after electricity brought light to the darkness of night, candles remain popular.  During the holiday season, it seems that candles are everywhere. Television ads for everything from jewelry to perfume are filmed with a backdrop of burning candles.
 
Over the centuries candles have changed a great deal as technological improvements provided new materials and manufacturing techniques.  Once upon a time, a standard wax candle was made from beeswax.  Centuries ago, candles burning in churches and homes deposited black soot on ceilings and walls.  When the Sistine chapel ceiling was cleaned a number of years ago, most of the dirt was reported to have been a thick coating of black soot.  The smoke from centuries of burning candles had covered up Michelangelo’s beautiful paintings.
 
Over the years, candle makers have searched for new methods and materials that would allow cleaner burning candles.  Beeswax has had to make room for whale oil, tallow and paraffin wax among many others.  Recently however, a new candlemaking breakthrough was unveiled.  Soy wax candles are now considered the next big thing in candlemaking technology.
 
According to the National Candle Association, all candles are made from some type of hydrocarbon and all produce some sort of soot. Among all the different types of candles, a soy wax candle is among the cleanest. Visibly identical to any other wax candle, soy wax candles can be molded, shaped and colored like any other material.  When burning, a soy wax candle emits much less smoke than a typical paraffin wax candle.
 
Soy wax candles are made from hydrogenated soybean oil.  Developed less than twenty years ago, soy wax is the latest breakthrough in modern candlemaking.  Soy wax candles have been tested and shown to be cleaner burning than typical paraffin wax candles.  Soy wax candles hold fragrance very well. Finally, Soy wax candles burn slower than paraffin or beeswax candles. This increases the value of the candle.
 
People with respiratory health problems sometimes complain that it is difficult to be around paraffin and other standard wax candles. The soot produced by a standard paraffin candle can sometimes make breathing difficult.  However, soy wax candles burn cleaner and many people sensitive to candle soot have reported that soy wax candles do not bother them.
 
All soy candles are not alike.  Soy wax can be used as the sole ingredient, or can be blended with paraffin or beeswax.  Be sure to check how much soy is used in any soy wax candle you purchase.  The higher the soy wax content, the cleaner and longer lasting the candle.
 
As if all these benefits were not enough, soy wax costs less to produce than other types of candle wax.   Since it is made from a renewable source, it also supports soybean farmers. The soybean is one of nature’s miracles producing food, oil, fuel and now candles. Soy wax candles have become the new standard for cleaner burning and long lasting candles.
