Teach Soap

I have seen that some websites are saying that they are 'curing' their candles. Do you normally have to do this or is it a certain formulation that needs to cure before using?

Thanks all!!

I remember when I looked into soy melts, that they say they should cure for at least a week to get the most benefit out of the scent throw.

It is best to let the candle sit for about three days. You'll get a better hot and cold throw.

Any Ecosoya brand recommends 48 hours before lighting it which is hard to wait for sometimes.

I would agree with soapbuddy to keep candles set for 2/3 days.

Be sure to measure your fragrance by weight and not volume! If you are using the 464 soy wax, you will then let the wax cool to 135 and pour. Allow your candles to cure for at least 3-5 days before burning them in order for the fragrance to fully develop. For Information you can visit my website at https://masonjarcandles.org/.
