Ky Para-Soy Tart & Votive Blend Wax

Directions:
All wax should be aired out 24-48 hours prior to using to remove excess moisture. Open up bag and stir/rotate wax every few hours. Store in a cool, dry area.

Heat to approx 160°-175° using a double boiler or a melter;, add color and candle scent, stir constantly for two minutes, then pour into clamshells, foil cups or molds. Pour temperature should be around 150°-160°.

When doing votives, a repour is required.

Because this contains soy wax, it needs to cure. Start with 1-2 weeks. As with all candles or melts containing soy wax: the longer they cure, the better they will throw. WARNING: Never melt wax on direct heat such as stove burner, always us a melter or double boiler method.

PRODUCT REVIEWS

Jodie • Ohio Date Submitted:  03/29/2024 I Recommend This Product!

"Love it!" COMMENTS:  I was using a 100% soy wax and had watched several videos recommending a para-soy blend. I decided to try this brand and I'm really glad I did! Fragrances are enhanced with this wax. Some of the lighter scented FO's even seemed to get a boost. I've had lots of comments on the melts I make, specifically how scented they are and how long they last. The pastilles are easy to measure and work with and I was also able to up the percentage of FO without any problems. I like that I no longer have frosting issues once wax is pulled from the molds. Couldn't be happier! PRODUCT USED IN:   Candles - Paraffin, Candles - Soy THINGS I LIKE   THINGS I'D LIKE TO CHANGE • Better fragrance throw than soy. • Releases from molds easier and cleaner. • Finished melts have a nice sheen. • Not a thing.

"The best wax for melts!!" COMMENTS:  I have tried every wax recommended for wax melts and this wax blend is hands down my favorite! If you’re using good fragrance oils you should not ever have issues. Every batch made has been amazing and I can even add a higher percentage of fragrance oils as long as it’s properly incorporated. This is now my only wax that I will use and I hope it’s here to stay.

"Hi, The second batch is causing massive air bubbles in my tarts. What can be done to prevent it? Thanks" Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Rohini   |   April 06, 2022 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer Air bubbles can be caused in numerous ways. Some possible solutions are to allow the wax to cool more slowly, pour the wax at a hotter temperature, pour the wax more slowly, or to try tilting your mold when pouring the wax. You can also try gently tapping your molds once the pour is completed to release any air bubbles.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: April 08, 2022 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

"What happens if I accidentally heat this wax hotter than 170? Should I let it cool to 170 and then add fragrance or should I dispose of wax?" Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Denisse   |   July 28, 2021 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer The melting point is 132, but it can be heated to a higher temperature if it is not scorched. You should be able to tell if the wax has been scorched by odor and color of wax. It can also separate if scorched. If everything looks and smells okay, it should be fine to use.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: August 03, 2021 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

"Hello! Just got this wax and it's wonderful. My question is what exactly is the temperature to add fragrance?? The directions state to heat this wax to 160-170 and then add fragrance. However other sources state to always add fragrance at 185. Adding fragrance at a lower temp will not give off the best throw. " Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Julie   |   January 30, 2021 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer Please go off the info on our website, Heat to 160-175, add FO immediately, stir for 2 minutes to combine, pour between 150-160!   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: February 03, 2021 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

"I've made many wax melts and love this blend! Can I use it to make a 3 wick candle in a 5in wide jar?" Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Victoria   |   January 30, 2021 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer You can use this for candles, but you’ll have to do some testing to see which wick works best. With the added paraffin, the wax burns hotter than just soy alone so a wick that might seem the proper size is prone to mushrooming and burning far faster than the same size container with the same wick(s) using straight soy wax. We usually recommend sizing down at least one wick size and trying that.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: February 03, 2021 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No
