Bluecorn beeswax taper candles are classic candlesticks: cotton wick dipped into pure molten beeswax at just the right temperature by a steady hand and a keen eye. These beeswax tapers are dipped and cooled over twenty times each before a pair can be cut free from the oak rack. When finished and hung, they carry the rich scent of honey and seem to hold light in their bellies. Kept out of drafts and away from fans our tapered beeswax candles will burn virtually dripless for about one hour per inch of length.

Beeswax Taper Features
- Super long burn time: 1 hr per inch
- Tapered beeswax candles made from 100% pure beeswax
- Paraffin-free & lead-free, non-toxic & hypoallergenic
- Perfect wedding candles or for celebrating the everyday
- Colored tapers are dyed solid/ all the way through
- These are standard taper candles, they fit in the vast majority of candlestick holders. Beeswax is also wonderfully malleable. If your taper is a hair narrow, simply warm the base over a flame and the molten wax will secure the taper in place. If the taper candle is a touch wide, gently press and twist into place.
Taper Dimensions & Care
- 8in. x .875in. (7/8")
- 10in. x .875in.
- 12in. x .875in.
- 16in. x .875in.
- To prevent dripping, keep away from open windows, fans or excessive airflow of any kind and place your hand behind flame when blowing out.
- Another trick to prevent dripping is to NOT trim the burnt wick before re-lighting! The long curled wick that you find should just be lit as is. Please note, this is different than all other candle styles that do benefit from regular wick trimming.
- We do not recommend burning tapers in hurricane glass as the radiant heat messes with the burn equation and increases the likelihood of drips.
- We have consciously chosen not to include chemical preservatives in these candles, which means that some of the lighter colors in particular may shift, subtly over time/ if exposed to sustained UV
- To minimize smoking use a snuffer to extinguish flame.

I haven't used them yet but love that they are all natural and the colors are gorgeous
Hi Jodi,
Thank you so much for the review! We’re so glad you’re loving the natural beauty and rich colors of our hand-dipped tapers. We hope you love the warm glow just as much once you light them!
Warmly, Leslie and The Bluecorn Team.
I know not every price is for everybody but these are so expensive. They look & smell just like cheap ones from China, I bought off of Amazon. my family couldn't tell the difference. The only difference we saw was the price point. I would love to be able to have enough money to buy from you guys again if I could see some type of difference
Hi Angel,
I’m sorry these didn’t stand out for you. Our tapers are hand‑dipped in the USA with 100% pure beeswax, which naturally puts them at a different price point than factory‑made imports. I understand that not every product fits every budget, but the materials and small‑batch process are what set them apart.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Warmly,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
Love them
Hi John,
Thank you! We're so glad you are enjoying our hand-dipped tapers. There's nothing quite like the warm glow of pure beeswax!
Gratefully, Leslie and The Bluecorn Team.
Honestly, I’ve never worked with a company with higher quality products and certainly a company with a higher standard for customer service. Thank you for everything. Kris Tompkins
Hey Kris,

Very pretty candles and the honey scent is lovely. Now
my apartment feels cosy and serene.
Hi Eva,
Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m delighted to hear the tapers are adding that pretty glow and gentle honey scent to your space — “cosy and serene” is exactly the feeling we hope they bring. Really appreciate you taking a moment to leave a review.
All the best,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
Tapers give off such wonderful light. The smell really is honeyed if I remember to turn off any fans or heaters that blow the air around too much for me to notice. Tapers also seem to last the longest and are by far the least maintenance or concern - these are the practical ones you want for evening wind down! One or two tapers are enough to read by for me.
Hi Samantha,
Thank you so much for this lovely review. We’re thrilled to hear how much you enjoy the tapers — that warm, honeyed scent and steady glow are exactly what makes pure beeswax so special. And you’re absolutely right: they’re wonderfully low‑maintenance and surprisingly long‑lasting, which makes them perfect for slow evening wind‑downs. We love knowing they’ve become part of your reading routine. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.
Have a beautiful week,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
Hi Linda,
Thanks so much for taking time out of your day to post this positive review! We appreciate you.
I'm also very happy too hear that you're enjoying your tapers. Each one is dipped with love!
Bee well,
Jennifer
The candles were very lovely and good quality. I decorated them and plan to use them for my wedding.
I have been buying 12” tapers from Bluecorn for a few years now, and love them so much that I send some to my clients for the year-end holiday celebrations. The smell of beeswax brings back memories of visiting my Swiss family’s chalets, with their freshly beeswaxed and polished wood floors. The wax candle colors are also super complimentary to my own house’s interior design.
I haven't used them yet but love that they are all natural and the colors are gorgeous

Title says it all. Bluecorn candles are simply the best!
Hi Erin,
This put such a smile on my face — thank you! We’re honored to be your go‑to candles and truly appreciate you taking a moment to share it.
Bee well,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
Nice candle. Arrived quickly and burns slowly when lit away from air flow from open window.
Hi Abbe,
Thank you so much for your review! I’m glad to hear your candle arrived quickly and is giving you that nice, slow burn. You’re absolutely right — keeping it away from drafts or open windows makes a big difference in how evenly it burns.
Thanks for sharing your experience and for choosing our candles!
Best wishes,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
Just as described
Hi Katlin,
Thank you so much for your review! I’m really glad to hear the tapers arrived just as described. We put a lot of care into making them consistent and beautiful, so it means a lot to hear that reflected back. Thanks for choosing our candles!
Best wishes,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
I recently discovered Bluecorn candles at the Portland (Oregon) Art Museum store and, attracted by the rich colors, bought 2 pairs of 12” tapers—teal and cranberry (or whatever the deep red is called). They burned so cleanly and for so long, and with no drips at all—I was very impressed! We always have candlelight at dinner in the dark winter months and these have added so much pleasure to the dining table. I had hoped to order more colors this time but so many colors were out of stock. I hope some of them will be back soon!
Hi Kathy,
Thank you so much for sharing this, and for picking up your first pairs at the Portland Art Museum store. We’re thrilled to hear the teal and burgundy tapers have been adding so much beauty to your winter dinners — a clean, steady, dripless burn is exactly what we aim for, so it means a lot to hear they impressed you.
You’re right that several colors are currently out of stock. We’ve had a few production delays, but our team is actively dipping more tapers and working hard to get the full palette back online. None of the colors you mentioned are being discontinued, and you’ll start seeing restocks roll out soon.
Thank you again for your kind words and for lighting your table with Bluecorn. We’re grateful to have you with us.
All the best,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team

The candles go so well with the candle stick holders. They look exactly as shown in the picture. They are very high quality and like they are from beeswax.
Hi Erin,

We put a lot of care into our beeswax and craftsmanship, so it means a lot to hear the quality shines through. I’m grateful you took the time to share your experience.

Really love this option for when I can’t commit to a lengthy burn. It’s great for tub side lighting & beeswax is the only way to go
Hi SW,
Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re really glad the tapers are the perfect fit for those shorter burn moments — and tub‑side lighting sounds like the dream way to enjoy them. We couldn’t agree more… beeswax truly is the way to go. Thanks for taking a moment to leave a review.
Many thanks,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
We have tried most of the beeswax candles on the market now, trying to find the best bang for our buck. After trying numerous brands we have settled in with our favorite for long lasting, clean burning candles. Thank you Bluecorn for your consistent and wonderful products.
Hi Lana,
Thank you so much for this incredible review — it truly means a lot to us. Hearing that you’ve tried so many brands and chose ours as your favorite for long‑lasting, clean‑burning candles is such an honor. Consistency and quality are things we care about deeply, so your words really hit home.
We’re grateful to have you in our community and so glad our candles have earned a spot in your home.
All the best,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
Great service! Can do attitude!
I haven't burned those candles yet, we still have 12 other one we bought from you to light first. They will be great!
Hi Dan,
Thank you for this wonderful review — it absolutely made my day! I love hearing that our candles are already adding a little extra glow, even before you’ve had a chance to burn this batch. And thank you for the kind words about our service; that means a lot to me.
Whenever you get to these new ones, I hope they’re every bit as lovely as the others you’ve enjoyed. Thanks again for your support and your great sense of humor!
Many thanks,
Jennifer & The Bluecorn Team
