Glass container candles come in a decorative white box - ideal as a present.

All candles are vegan and hand-poured in small batches in Dundee/Scotland

Characteristics of soy wax candles:

• Soy wax candles are not made from petroleum products, but from pure soybean oil, which is a natural, renewable resource
• Soy wax candles burn cleaner with little soot released
• Soy wax candles burn at lower temperature, which means they burn slower and last a lot longer than e.g. paraffin candles
• Soy wax spills or stains can easily be cleaned up using soap and water

Some tips to get the most out of your candle:

• When lighting a candle for the first time, ensure the wax has melted all or most of the surface. This avoids the candle burning down around the wick, leaving wax around the edges, which is also called ‘tunnelling’
• Don’t burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time
• Allow the candle to cool for 1 to 2 hours between burns
• Always trim the wick to about 5mm to ensure even burning and to avoid soot and prevent large flames
