lauralea Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I have been using Joy Wax for about 4 years and I really do like it. I have many people say it is the best candle they ever burned. The problem is, I live in the South and it just melts too easily when I do outdoor events. I'm tired of having to make sure the sun isn't shining on them and always moving the display back into some shade. Is there a soy or soy blend that does better in the summertime outside? Maybe I can just make the Joy Wax during the colder seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah S Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Have you tried IGI 6006? It's a parasoy blend that most companies carry. I myself like Candlewic's CBL 130, it's an in-house blend similar to the Joy wax, with a firmer consistency and I like the burn much better. When I first started making candles I thought Joy wax was the bees knees, but after a bit of shopping around I realized there are waxes that burn better, throw better, and are certainly less expensive. Just my opinion though! Both the waxes I mentioned do have parrafin in them, while I believe the Joy wax is an all veggie blend, so I don't know if that a deal breaker for you or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
