Why did we choose to use soy wax for our candles?
Well, there are a few reasons, maybe we will start with what was most important to us… it is non-toxic, and a cleaner burning candle compared to a lot its competition. That is a huge win for not only our birds but for us as well. It is made with no pollutants, carcinogens or toxins which would be less triggering to allergies. Also safe for our birds’ respiratory systems. They do not produce harmful by-products or black soot either, keeping your space around the candle clean.
Another positive note is soy wax has a much lower melting point compared to paraffin wax, meaning soy candles will burn slower and longer.
Lastly, soy wax is a natural source since it comes from soybean plants, that makes it a much more environmentally friendly choice for candle making ingredients!
