Soy Basics
Beanpod Candles

Beanpod Candles™ are created for a new generation of candle lovers.

If you're looking for fresh and exciting fragrances to enhance your home or office, and you appreciate quality and long-lasting value, you've found the perfect candle.

Beanpod Candles™ are made here in America's Heartland from 100% stabilized soy wax, which provides a long and clean-burning candle that will retain its vibrant fragrance and brilliant color. Most soy candles are actually a blend of soy wax and paraffin (sometimes as much as 75% paraffin), which can discolor and lose fragrance over time. You will notice the difference of Beanpod Candles™ from the moment you light one.

Long Burn Times!

There are a few simple steps to follow to get the maximum enjoyment from your Beanpod Candles. Soy wax is softer than paraffin, which is one of the reasons you won't find pillar candles made of 100% soy. Therefore, votives need to be burned in a tight-fitting container for maximum fragrance and burn time.

Soy wax does not burn as hot as paraffin wax, so soy candles require a thicker wick, which does not combust 100%. After each burn, trim the wick to 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch in length to minimize soot and remove any mushrooming of the wick left by the previous burn.

When lighting a soy candle for the first time, allow the wax to pool all the way to the sides of the container. (Pooling is simply defined as melted wax. The initial burn of any candle should last as long as it takes to get the melted wax all the way to the edges of the jar - about 1" per hour.) This will give you maximum fragrance and minimize the amount of wax remaining on the sides of the container. If you don't allow the wax to pool on the first burn of your soy candle (or any candle), you may get "tunneling", which means the wax simply burns down the center of the candle, leaving wax on the side of the jar.
