What’s Inside the Candle Making Kit?

While contents may vary slightly depending on the variant, a standard candle making kit usually includes:

1. Candle Wax
High-quality wax such as soy wax, paraffin wax, or blended wax that melts evenly and provides a smooth finish. The wax is easy to handle and ideal for beginners while still meeting professional standards.

2. Pre-Tabbed Cotton Wicks
Clean-burning cotton wicks that ensure steady flame, minimal smoke, and proper wax consumption. Pre-tabbed wicks make the candle-making process simple and mess-free.

3. Fragrance Oils
Premium-grade candle fragrances that disperse well in wax and deliver a long-lasting aroma. These fragrances are carefully formulated to withstand high temperatures and provide excellent hot and cold throw.

4. Liquid or Dye Chips (Optional)
Candle-safe colors that help you create visually appealing candles. You can make pastel shades or vibrant hues depending on the amount used.

5. Containers or Molds (Kit Dependent)
Glass jars, tins, or molds that are heat-resistant and suitable for candle making.

6. Stirring Stick / Spoon
Used to mix fragrance and color evenly into melted wax.

7. Wick Stickers or Glue Dots
To securely fix wicks at the center of the container.

8. Instruction Manual
A step-by-step guide that walks you through the entire candle-making process, including safety tips, wax melting temperature, fragrance load, and curing time.

Easy Step-by-Step Candle Making Process

This candle making kit is designed to make the process simple and enjoyable:

1. Melt the Wax
   Heat the wax using a double boiler method until it reaches the recommended temperature.

2. Prepare the Container
