That's awesome that you're a beekeeper! If I could ask, how much do you sell your wax for, and do you have a website?

Would it work to use Now food grade orange oil in candles?
What wicks do you recommend for beeswax candles?
Wondering how you made Apple Spice candles with orange essential oil? Do you prefer the white beeswax over the yellow? and is there a reason? Thanks!

I always add orange to my apple cider candles along with the Apple Cider essential oil by NOW foods! I just like the scent it gives it. I really love both yellow and white wax, and don't have a preference smell wise, but when I'm making them for other people I've noticed white Beeswax is more popular. Thanks for your questions!
How much Coconut oil do you add to Beeswax?
Hi how much beeswax to coconut oil do you use 🥰🥰🥰😊

I do a 75/25, or sometimes 80/20 ratio! 80% Beeswax, 20% Coconut oil! So if I was to make 1lb of wax, I believe that makes it around 3oz coconut oil and 13oz of Beeswax. I hope that helps! I'm not the best at math 😅

How long do you wait until lighting?
@beeswaxandwicks
7 ай бұрын
Anywhere from 12hrs to a couple days. With Beeswax, you can light as soon as it's set up, which will vary depending on the size of the candle, but typically waiting at least 12hrs is best practice.
What temperature to add fragrances????

Add fragrance at 180-185 degrees and pour your candles after it cools to around 165 degrees :)
