Why Soy?
- LONG-LASTING: Soy candles will burn for about 6-8 hours per ounce compared with 4-5 for paraffin.
- ECO-FRIENDLY: Soy wax is non-toxic and burns cleaner than paraffin, with no petrol-carbon soot which can give off black smoke and affect the air we breathe.
-SUSTAINABLE: Soy wax is completely renewable unlike paraffin or other oil based waxes.
-BIODEGRADABLE: Since soybeans are vegetables, soy wax (basically made from hydrogenated soybean oil) is naturally biodegradable. Soy wax is also easier to remove from materials and other surfaces than paraffin wax. Soy wax is actually water soluble.
- LOCAL: The soy beans are American grown.
-COOL BURNING: Relatively safe around kids and pets (other than the flame, of course).

Burning Instructions:
Trim wick to 1/4 inch before lighting. Keep candle free of any foreign materials including matches and wick trimmings. Only burn the candle on a level, fire resistant surface. With first burn, allow the candle to reach a full melt pool before extinguishing the flame (usually takes ~ 4 hours). This will allow for an even melt of the candle and prevent tunneling through the wax. Do not burn the candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Always burn candle within sight.
