Best Candle Making Wax of 2025

"As a family, we made candles over Christmas using these wax beads. They are easy to use, have a mild scent, and burn clean. I’m impressed with how slowly this wax burns, making my handmade candles last a long time! I'm super happy and will definitely purchase again!"

"I'm pretty new to candle making, and I’m so glad I chose this brand of wax! It melts beautifully and quickly using a burner top. I appreciate that it doesn't emit a burning chemical odor when melting. I’m still figuring out the perfect ratios for fragrance oils and wax, but so far, this wax has been great!"

"I love this wax! It works perfectly for my homemade candles, and I will keep using it. However, I advise against adding coconut oil, as it can create an uneven seal around the glass jars. Overall, it’s soft, easy to work with, and has a great throw!"

"I've found this wax to be super easy to use as a beginner. I did need to buy a few extra items like a melting pot and temperature gauge, but overall, it's been an affordable way to make gifts. The amount of wax and wicks included has lasted me quite a while. It pours beautifully and levels nicely. My only concern is that it doesn't really release the scent while burning, but that could be due to the fragrance I chose, so I'm still giving it 5 stars."

"I purchased the 5 lb box of wax with wicks and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to make candles. I still have a lot of wax left over after creating six medium to large candles. It's been a great experience for a beginner like me!"

"I got this kit for a daddy-daughter night, and everything was in perfect condition. We had a blast making candles together. While you may not really save money making your own candles, it's incredibly rewarding and fun to do it yourself. This kit is a good value for first-time candle makers or casual hobbyists."

"I had never used soy wax before, but I found it easy to work with when making pine cone fire starters. It melted well in the microwave, and the pine cones turned out nice after wicking and dipping. Good product at a reasonable price!"

"As someone who enjoys making homemade candles, I can say this is by far the best wax I've ever used. It settles perfectly and has a smooth finish. It burns really nicely too. This will definitely be my go-to wax from now on!"

"I used this wax for making candles and wax melts, and it worked very well. It melts quickly and easily, which makes the whole process enjoyable."

"As the candle maker in our family, I absolutely love this soy wax. It melts evenly and allows me to add colors and scents easily. It's definitely a great buy!"

"I recently made my first candle with this kit, and I found the wax warmer to be durable and easy to clean. It came with everything I needed, including a stirrer. The dye packets were smaller than I anticipated but provided great vibrant colors. I did have to buy a thermometer separately, but overall, I highly recommend this user-friendly product."

"I needed unscented candles for a Clusterbuster convention and was thrilled to find this kit. It was excellent and easy to use. I was able to make about 60 4-ounce candle tins with vibrant colors, and the finished product turned out exactly how I wanted. I even bought another box for Christmas gifts!"

"I truly appreciate this product! The price point is fantastic, and the wax melts smoothly, making it a pleasure to use. I find the beads to be much less messy than the flakes, which is a big plus. The free cotton wicks are also of high quality and well-constructed. I would definitely consider purchasing this product again in the future. Overall, a great experience!"

"My candles turned out beautiful, and the price is great. Thank you! I will surely buy again."

"Melted wonderfully and held fragrance well. I have no issues with this wax!"

"I absolutely love this coconut soy wax blend. The candles always have a smooth top after pouring and burn cleanly. The interaction with fragrance oil is exceptional, resulting in fantastic hot and cold throw that brings in compliments!"

"As a small business owner, I've experienced some ups and downs this year. The first box weighed 9 lbs. 12 oz., which was a bit disappointing since I ordered 10 lbs. However, I must say, this wax is simply amazing! It melts quicker than other brands and is much more forgiving with pouring temperatures. I'm considering purchasing it again, although I hope to clarify the weight issue with customer service."

"I started making candles a year ago, and I feel lucky that my first choice was this wax. It's easy to handle and comes carefully packaged. I'm excited to explore other wax types from this supplier, but so far, I heat it to 185 degrees and pour at 135 degrees for great results!"

"This brand has worked really well for me. I mix it with soy wax, and it creates a great candle that holds scents effectively."

"I purchased this to make fire starters and was impressed with the fast shipping. I switched from another seller because I was tired of waiting."

"As someone new to candle making, I found this wax to be super hard compared to what I usually use. It has a higher melting temperature, and the finished product didn't look as nice. However, it did hold the scent and dye well and burned fine."

"I found this wax very easy to use! It's a fantastic crafting idea for both kids and adults. The value for this kit is great. My kids and I made candles for Christmas gifts! The burn rate is standard, but I had to add essential oils for scent."

"As someone who doesn't know much about candle making, I noticed that the wicks burned too fast in different sized candles, including a jam-sized mason jar. I didn't trim them too short, so I suspect it could be a wick quality issue. However, the wax is a good value, and I'll experiment with different wicks."

"I chose this wax for a Valentine's Day project with my boyfriend, and we both absolutely loved it! The wax quality was great, and we made six medium candles with plenty left over. Since the wax had no scent, we added lots of essential oils to create our own fragrances. It was a wonderful experience!"

"I love how amazing these smell on their own. They have a light yellow color and remind me of home without being overpowering. They melt quickly, which makes them so versatile for my candle making and wax melts. Plus, the zip lock bag is a great touch for storage!"

"When I opened the package, I was pleasantly surprised by the nice scent. I bought this for making lip balm, and I think it's great quality for the price I paid!"

"I used this to make candles and it was easy to melt and pour. It does have a naturally sweet scent, which I personally enjoy. Overall, it worked great for my needs!"

"I found this product to be a fun crafty project. I love it! I've tried other brands, but this one is great for the price point and quality. The wicks are a bit long for my smaller jars, but they work wonders in taller jars."

"I've tried several brands of soy wax for my crafting business, and this one has by far been the best quality for the price. It's so easy to use and functions exactly as expected. It melts so smoothly!"

"Using granules was a game changer for me! The wax is incredibly forgiving and soft, making it much easier to decorate and saving me time. I'm thrilled with these little wax pellets!"
