  1. The reason I ask also is that I have been mixing different oils with soy and have gotten some interesting results. WEverything seems to look great, but the sides pull away from the container everytime. I just wanted to know what people thought about that.
  2. I know it is a vague question, but there are so many factors in a candle. It is soo hard to achieve all factors. I just want to know what is important to everyone out there.
  3. what do you look for in a container candle? What features impresses all of you the most? Which waxes have these features?
  4. They hydrogenate it to take the soy form oil to a harder form. It is still soy. I was told that soy "wax" is the same thing you use to cook with. It just has a different melt point. Again, how can there be any difference between soy as in crisco or vegi oil or soy wax. The only difference is the melt point and the hardness of the soy. I just don't understand. The only difference between Wesson Oil and Soy Wax is the melt point. Wesson Oil is in liquid form so it has a low melt point. The "Wax" is in a harder form. So it has a higher melt point. I just can't figure out why I cna't get the same answer on this subjuct. Everyone seems to have a different opinion.
  5. My understanding is that Soy wax isn't made for food. It is food. It is 100% soy form soy beans. It is by no means a wax. It is food that can be used as wax. This is why there is variation in each batch. You can add something to it and it might still be all natural, but it is not all soy.
  6. what is soy in wax form. It has been my understanding that there is no wax form. It is just soy. Soy is Soy...Right?
  7. What kind of additive is it? What does it look like? Are there anywords on it to give any directions?
  8. Beth, If you can get your hands on some palm with a low melt point.....Do it. This should help with the burning issues.
  9. I would call that a soy blend. I don't think it is ethical to call it all soy. I could be wrong. I'm sure there aren't any real rules on this.
