Supplies
Wax melting pitcher/pot or heat safe container
Candle Tin (2)
Utensil to mix wax (I use a cocktail spoon)
Kitchen Scale
Small Pot
Ingredients
312g Coconut Apricot Wax
Dried Rose Petals (optional)
Black Candle Dye (optional)
Directions
Prepare a water bath by bringing about an inch of water to a simmer on medium-low heat in a small pot.
Weigh out your wax in a heat safe container/melting pitcher and place the container in the water bath in order to melt the wax.
Once your wax reaches 200 degrees Fahrenheit, remove the container from the water bath and mix in the fragrance oil. If you are adding candle dye, do so at this step and mix thoroughly.
Once you have completed stirring, immediately pour your mixture into the candle tins, splitting the mixture evenly between the two. Your pouring temperature may vary if using a different wax.
Let your wax solidify completely.
If you would like to add dried rose petals or other decorations, melt the top of the candle with a heat gun then sprinkle them on top and let set.
Notes
If you are coloring the full batch, add 6-12 drops of dye and for a half batch, add 3-6 drops.
Hive and Honey Candle Co recommend a 1-2 week cure time to maximize hot and cold throw for this wax.
If you are using a different wax, please adhere to the melting instructions for that wax.
This recipe uses approx. 9% fragrance oil.
To use wickless candles, I recommend purchasing a candle warmer. Here are links to the candle warmers I have: https://amzn.to/3yhkP4g & https://amzn.to/3YkQ09q
