  • Check that scents use quality fragrance or essential oils and aren't overpowering unlit.
  • Support local Baldwin makers — small-batch candles are often better poured and better value than mass brands.

What is the best type of candle wax?

Soy, coconut, and beeswax burn cleaner and longer than paraffin and hold scent well. Many Baldwin makers use them, so ask what a shop pours.

Why is my candle tunneling or burning too fast?

It is usually a wick or wax-pool issue. Trim the wick to about a quarter inch and let the first burn melt the top edge to edge. A good shop can recommend the right size.
