How to make a soy candle

Posted on September 29, 2016

How Easy is Soy Candle Making? Well!!! That depends on your desired outcome. If you wish to make candles for yourself to burn at home then candle making is dead easy and great fun.

If however you wish to set up a business and sell your candles then it becomes more difficult. Before you even entertain the thought of setting up a business ask yourself are you prepared for all the hard work ahead! Yes! It is hard work and if you’re out to make a quick buck with something as ‘easy’ as soy candles then forget it.

Soy candle making isn’t ‘melt and pour’. It requires months of testing and burning and retesting and experimenting. It can be frustrating at times when you can’t seem to solve a problem but with the right attitude and some hard work you will get there. Once you are there it can be such a rewarding, satisfying and profitable ‘hobby’ or business.

Making a soy candle is quite technical and to get it right even more so. We supply free detailed information on the website to help you achieve the best possible result from your products but the rest is up to you. If you are not prepared to work hard and experiment and follow the correct procedures your outcome will reflect this. The market is very competitive and soy candles abound in the market compared to 6 years ago when there was only mine.

Before starting on your project research carefully all the information that is available to you and then make your choices. It can be a rewarding hobby and business but ‘rome wasn’t built in a day’ and neither will your experience or business.
