I have heard nothing about soy except that it eats fragrance and is hard to figure out. Clearly, I am not going to sell these if they don't even have a scent throw lol. I'm not trying to give myself a bad name..I am using RRD wicks, so far I have used pumpkin spice, blueberry muffin, creme brulee, sugar cookie, and cinnamon bun just to name a few. I let the candles cure for 24 hrs and did a test, no scent. I did another test after curing for 3 days, no scent. And I just tried one today that I made over a week ago, and there is still no scent throw. Their cold scent throw is amazing though! For the most part I am using votive molds for my testsers..any suggestions would be great. Thanks

I am about to LOSE MY MIND!!! Everyone has said that palm wax has an awesome scent throw..originally I used soy wax and found that there wasn't enough time in the day to get that stuff right lol. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago I started using palm wax from peak candles. I was so excited! Now that I am finally pouring they have absolutely NO scent. They have a cold scent throw, but no hot scent throw whatsoever. I feel like I'm working with soy all over again! I am pouring at a little under 200 degrees...mixing the fragrances in the wax for 2 minutes, using a wick that peak candles suggested for palm wax. I need help!! I have a craft show next week and I am getting no where making candles that can't even be sold

Also, I am using feather palm wax for pillars and votives. Which I previously stated I had bought from peak candles. I am also using 1 oz of fragrance per lb of wax.
