Coconut–Soy Wax Blend: Performance, Sustainability, and Safety — Why We Choose It

Coconut–Soy Wax Blend: Performance, Sustainability, and Safety — Why We Choose It

Candles should feel good, smell incredible, and burn beautifully from first light to final flicker. That’s why we craft our candles with a coconut–soy wax blend—supported by a very small amount of highly refined, food‑grade paraffin to enhance performance and hot throw. Here’s the full story on why this blend is a great choice for your home.

What Makes Coconut–Soy Special

- Smooth, even burn 
  Coconut and soy waxes melt into a creamy, uniform pool, reducing tunneling and helping your candle burn down evenly.

- Excellent scent performance 
  Coconut wax has a naturally low melt point and rich, creamy structure that carries fragrance molecules exceptionally well. Paired with soy, it delivers a balanced cold throw (what you smell unlit) and a powerful hot throw (what you smell while burning).

- Cleaner experience 
  Our blend is formulated to produce minimal visible soot when used correctly (trim your wick to 6–7 mm, keep candles away from drafts, and burn in 3–4 hour sessions).

Bonus: Working with this wax is an incredible experience for me the maker. It offers smooth tops and easy pours, with minimal bubbles. 


Sustainability: Thoughtful Sourcing and Responsible Use

Sustainability is about the whole system, including ingredients, manufacturing, and end‑of‑life.

- Plant‑based core 
  Coconut and soy are renewable, plant‑derived waxes. We source from suppliers committed to responsible agriculture and traceability.

- Efficient burn 
  A well‑designed coconut–soy blend burns at a moderate temperature, extending candle life and reducing waste.

- Minimal additive load 
  By using only a tiny percentage of food‑grade paraffin for performance, we preserve a predominantly plant‑based formulation while achieving the reliability you expect.

- Packaging choices 
  We prioritize recyclable vessels and minimal, recyclable packaging whenever possible.

Safety: What’s In and What’s Out

Your air quality matters. Our formulation standards are strict across wax, fragrances, and wicks.

- No phthalates 
- No sulfates 
- No parabens 

We use clean‑fragrance standards and wicks that are free from lead and other heavy metals. When burned as directed, our candles are designed for a clean, enjoyable experience.

Why This Blend Is a Great Choice

- Balanced performance: premium hot throw with smooth, even burns. 
- Cleaner standards: rigorous ingredient screening and minimal soot when used properly. 
- Thoughtful sustainability: plant‑based core with targeted performance enhancement. 
- Consistency: reliable glass adhesion, fewer cosmetic issues, and fragrance fidelity over time.
