Natural Wax Candles

Have you ever heard about natural wax candles? What about soy candles? Have you ever noticed black on your jars or on the walls of your house? Well the black comes from soot which is created by the chemicals found in candles made of paraffin and other non-natural ingredients. The new trend in candles today is to avoid these chemicals and to use ones with natural wax which are healthier for you and for the environment. Learn more about them and why you may want to start burning them.

Soy or Natural Wax Candles? 

You may be wondering what the difference is between a "soy" candle and a "natural wax" candle.

It can be confusing. At our company, we started as a pure "Soy" candle and our "Mad Scientist Candle Maker", Carmen Milazzo soon discovered that pure Soy wax does not hold the scent as strongly as he desired. His goal has always been to create the strongest, best smelling NATURAL WAX candle in the marketplace.

So, he began experimenting with blends of Soy, Vegetable and Bees Wax. The results have been amazing and that is what has created our Gourmet Candle!

Today, we no longer differentiate between "Soy" wax and "Vegetable" wax. So we prefer to call our candle a natural wax candle.

One thing is for certain, our candles contain no paraffin or petroleum products!

Here is the "official" stance on our candles from the company -

Looking for a great performing soy candle? So were we until we found out about a better way to make soot-free candles!

Although soy candles are one of the newest innovations in candle technology, many "gourmet candle lovers" have been switching to natural vegetable waxes instead!

The inventor of our natural vegetable wax candle was one of the original innovators of low soot and soot free candle technology.

Like most candle makers of that period (late 1990s) he started his quest by working with soy wax. He soon found that although soy was indeed a great way to create a low soot candle, it wasn't (in his opinion) the right material for gourmet candles!

In his opinion, gourmet candle burners want strongly scented candles that cover a larger area and give a more realistic scent. What he found was that natural vegetable wax candles not only burned just as clean as a soy candle, but could hold more scent. More scent means a better "gourmet" candle.

With our candles, the consumer gets the healthier qualities of a cleaner burning candle, but they also get maximum value and performance! It isn't necessary to sacrifice performance for a healthier alternative. The performance you will get with our gourmet blend is incredible to the very end!

Candles 

A candle is a source of light, and sometimes a source of heat, consisting of a solid block of fuel (commonly wax) and an embedded wick.

Today, most candles are made from paraffin. Candles can also be made from beeswax, soy and other plant waxes, and tallow (a by-product of beef-fat rendering). Gel candles are made from a mixture of paraffin and plastic.

A candle manufacturer is traditionally known as a chandler. Various devices have been invented to hold candles, from simple tabletop candle holders, to elaborate chandeliers.

The heat of the match used to light the candle melts and vaporizes a small amount of fuel. Once vaporized, the fuel combines with oxygen in the atmosphere to form a flame. This flame provides sufficient heat to keep the candle burning via a self-sustaining chain of events: the heat of the flame melts the top of the mass of solid fuel, the liquefied fuel then moves upward through the wick via capillary action, and the liquefied fuel is then vaporized to burn within the candle's flame.

The burning of the fuel takes place in several distinct regions (as evidenced by the various colors that can be seen within the candle's flame). Within the bluer regions, hydrogen is being separated from the fuel and burned to form water vapor. The brighter, yellower part of the flame is the remaining carbon being oxidized to form carbon dioxide.

As the mass of solid fuel is melted and consumed, the candle grows shorter. Portions of the wick that are not evaporating the liquid fuel are consumed in the flame. The incineration of the wick limits the exposed length of the wick, thus maintaining a constant burning temperature and rate of fuel consumption. Some wicks require regular trimming with scissors (or a specialized wick trimmer), usually to about one-quarter inch (~.7 cm), to promote slower, steady burning, and also to prevent smoking.
