TwinMom Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Hello everyone, I dont think I have ever posted in this section before. I posted in the general making this same question but thought I would try here to. I have been offered by a company to sell my candles in their store that is being built here in town for next year. They are interested in parrafin and soy. I have only ever used Soy for containers not free standing candles such as pillars or votives. Can anyone suggest a good type of soy for this? I would like to start testing with different waxes now. I am looking for soy and any other natural waxes. I live in Canada (Kamloops) but dont mind purchasing my waxes from the US. Thank you in advance.....I went to soy candle website but they do not ship to Canada??? Any other suggestions of places to shop???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 My favorite soy pillar wax is the Calwax Calsoy PB3 blend. Its a soy/veggie blend. It always behaves the best in my opinion. The only place to get it though is Swans Candles in WA (they have a website) or you can get it directly from Calwax in CA but they have a $300 minimum order.

hotmama Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I actually gave up on pillars. Probably just my technique but they always seemed to crack partway down a spill everywhere!!! I tried for 2 years. Anyway, not your question, just me venting my frustration. Good Luck!Mama:o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carriegsxr6 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Its golden brands wax, go to the golden brands website (they may even have a link on this site on the right side of this page) and contact them to find your closest supplier.

MasterBaker2 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I use the CB-10 from Swans and love it. Beatiful pillars as long as you're doing solid colors or leaving them uncolored. Can't do marbles in them etc. It is a para-soy blend from CalWax.HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
