Pure Beeswax Pillar Candles
Pure Beeswax Pillar Candles
100% Pure Beeswax Candles with a Cotton Wick
Many raw beeswax pillar candles have difficulty burning because the particulate in beeswax clogs the wick, resulting in a weak flame and tunneling. Our 100% pure beeswax pillars will burn perfectly because we lightly filter our crude beeswax and carefully choose the right wick. Light filtration takes out just the right amount of particulate while keeping the sweet honey scent and gorgeous natural color intact.

Dimensions & Care
Please note that candle dimensions are industry standard, i.e. based on the size of the mold the candle is poured into. Some shrinkage can occur as the candle cools, so very minor size fluctuations are to be expected.
2” Dia. Pillars:
- Trim wick to 1/4" before each lighting.
- To avoid dripping, burn for only 1 hour at a time.
- To eliminate smoke when extinguishing the flame, use a tool to drip wax from the molten pool onto the burning wick.
3” Dia. Pillars:
- Trim wick to 1/4" before each lighting.
- To avoid tunneling, burn for at least 3 hours per burn and mold the warm sides in toward the flame. This will melt the walls, utilizing all of the available fuel, and thus extend the overall burn time. It will also raise the molten wax level, and shrink any over-sized flame.
- To prevent uneven burning and potential dripping, use a metal tool to redirect a curled or angled wick to the opposite direction. To prevent wick breakage when doing this, be sure to nudge the wick below the level of the molten pool where the wick is not burned and thus stronger.
- To eliminate smoke when extinguishing the flame, use a tool to drip wax from the molten pool onto the burning wick.

Recently started a subscription so I’d never run out. Tried Samantha Bee’s recently because I didn’t have any and they just don’t have the same burn quality. Bluecorn candles are the best I’ve used.

I’ve been burning this candle every night for the past several weeks. It’s beautiful Initially I had trouble getting it not to “tunnel.” I felt so much wax on the outside was being wasted. I wrote to the company and quickly heard back from Jennifer, who was incredibly helpful in providing tips for keeping burning the candle efficiently, They made all the difference. I’m about to order more.
