Our Wax

─────────────────────────────────────────

At Build A Candle, the foundation of every candle begins with our carefully selected rapeseed and coconut wax blend.

We chose this wax not only for its beautiful appearance and fragrance performance, but also for the way it burns and its lower environmental impact compared to traditional paraffin waxes.

The quality of wax used in a candle directly affects:

• burn performance
• scent throw
• surface finish
• mould detail
• overall candle experience

That’s why we use a premium wax blend designed to create candles that look beautiful, smell incredible, and burn as cleanly and evenly as possible.

🕯️ About Rapeseed & Coconut Wax

Rapeseed wax is sustainably grown in Europe and is considered one of the more environmentally conscious wax options available.

It is:

• renewable
• biodegradable
• vegan-friendly
• low in carbon footprint

Rapeseed wax also burns slowly and evenly, helping candles maintain a stable flame and longer-lasting burn.

Coconut wax is valued for its smooth texture and excellent fragrance performance. It helps candles hold and release scent beautifully, creating a balanced fragrance throw both when lit and unlit.

Together, this blend allows us to create candles with:

• excellent mould detail
• smooth, refined finishes
• strong fragrance retention
• clean, even burning performance

This makes it the perfect wax base for our sculptural and collectible candle designs.
