Mythreindeer Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Recently working with bayberry and wondering about other's experience. I've been varying the percentage of beeswax to minimize fracturing as well as pour temps and slow cooling in the oven but can't seem to achieve consistency. Anyone have suggestions? Anything appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Bayberry is really best for tapers. I’ve never been able to wick it well in any other form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the only candle I make for myself are 100% beeswax - nothing like it. Honestly, the heavily scented candles most people buy, or expect you to make, are a bit over the top. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
