Everything you need to make scented candles at home, in 20 pages

Making a candle is not hard. Making the same candle twice is. This guide gathers the essentials of what we teach in our Barcelona workshops, and quite a bit more: the whole process, the maths and the judgement to make your second candle better than the first.

No "magic temperatures" and no industry secrets: we explain what happens with each decision so you can choose.

What's inside

The candle in nine steps: from an empty jar to a cured candle, with the numbers of a real one.
The recipe: how much wax your jar takes and how much fragrance goes in, with a reference table.
What you need, and what you don't: what to buy, what is already in your kitchen and what you must never use.
The wick: how to choose the size and what the flame is telling you.
Temperatures for mixing and pouring, and what changes at each end.
Wax: soy, rapeseed, coconut, paraffin, beeswax. Which one suits you.
Fragrance: how much to use and why a candle sometimes doesn't smell.
Defects: marks, cracks and sinkholes. What they are and how to avoid them.
The burn test: how to know a candle is safe and burns well.
Two printable sheets: the recipe sheet and the burn-test sheet.
