Golden Brands list this on all of our boxes. Anything with the GB label is treated as a food product and therefore adhears to the rules set forth by the FDA. If you ever have any questions as to what is in our waxes call me and i will be more then happy to go over it with you.

If it is the wax, then what is happening??? Once the FO is in the wax it is in it. You are burning the wax too fast, therefore, burning the FO out of the wax. If you re-light the candle and give it a minute you will let it catch up and will start to smell it again. You are burning it to fast. It is not the wax, or the FO, but the wick you used with the wax.

The problem is that you are burning the wax too fast. Call Wick It and let them know you want a wick for a low melt point soy wax.

It's my understanding the GB 416 is for tarts only and not votives. The 416 develops a white powdery looking residue on the tarts. The ONLY way I have been able to elminate this is by adding additional soy to the tart wax.
It's by far the worst tart wax I have had to work with. I had posted a day or two ago asking if there was anything I could mix with the 416 to make votives but got no responses.
I would go with the 474 if I were you.
I am sure you are not the only one dealing with this. That is why I am trying to help. This should not be the case with the 416. It is a pure soy, just like the 402 and 415. By adding more soy to the 416 to fix the issue shouldn't change anything but the melt point. This is where I am confused. If you don't mind I would like to ask you a couple of questions to see if we can narrow down the problem in case someone else comes across this.
Are you using liquid color or a color block?
What wax are you adding to the 416?
Thanks for you help,

the 416 is a pure soy and should only be used for tarts. It has a melt point of 135. What temp you bring it up to shouldnt matter, only the pour temp.
The 474 has a melt point of 135 also, but should be poured around 145.

This 416 is a pure soy. Just like the 402 and 415 it will frost alot if you pour it too hot. You need to pour it at a very low temp (100).

I obviously can’t speak for any other waxes, but all GB waxes are kosher and FDA certified.

I suggest 10%, but I do know of people who use a higher percentage. It really is all up to you.

Quick question, I see you are in Louisville, KY. Do you know who the closest supplier would be to the Nashville, TN area for the GB waxes? I am obviously trying to keep shipping costs to a minimum if possible. Thanks!
Aztec International is Knoxville would be a good one for you.

Stella, that is a good answer. You may want to look at a softer wax during the winter. You can also try adding a softer wax to your current wax.
