Hearth & Harbor Organic Soy Candle Wax 3.63 kg Kit with 100 Wicks & Tools — Pure, Clean-Burning

Hearth & Harbor Organic Candle Wax is an 8 lb bag of pure soy wax flakes packaged with wicks and basic tools so you can make clean-burning container candles at home.

This all-in-one candle making kit gives you easy-to-melt soy wax flakes, cotton wicks, wick stickers, and holders, so you can go from melting to pouring with minimal fuss. The flakes are formulated to accept up to a 10% fragrance load and work with candle-safe dyes, making them a flexible base for scented or coloured jars, tins, and moulded shapes. Free from paraffin and animal-derived additives, the wax targets eco-conscious crafters who want a cleaner-burning, plant-based alternative.

How do I melt and scent these soy wax flakes safely?

Melt the flakes using a double boiler, dedicated wax melter, or microwave-safe container, heating until the wax reaches about 160°F. Stir thoroughly before adding fragrance and colour so the oils distribute evenly, then pour carefully into prepared containers.

• Heat target: ~160°F (use a thermometer)
• Recommended equipment: double boiler or wax melter
• Fragrance load: up to 10% (1.6 oz per pound)
• Stir, add dye/fragrance, then pour and cool undisturbed

The kit contains 8 lbs of soy wax flakes, 100 cotton candle wicks (6"), 100 wick stickers, and two wick holders to keep wicks centered during pouring. You may want a thermometer, pouring pitcher, and containers or moulds if you don’t already have them.

How strong will the scent be and how do I achieve even colour?

This soy wax supports a maximum fragrance concentration of 10%, which balances scent throw with stable burning. For consistent colour, use candle-safe dyes and add them while the wax is fully liquid, stirring until the colour is uniform before pouring.

• Max fragrance: 10% (1.6 oz per lb)
• Add dye and fragrance at full melt for even distribution
• Test small batches to fine-tune scent and colour ratios
• Allow candles to cure for better scent throw
