STEP 1: GET YOUR Starter KIT AND CREATE

Many novice candle makers spend hundreds of pounds just trying to get a candle that works - we wanted to speed up that process. Our starter kits give you the tools you'll need to make candles that really work - by that we mean they smell good and burn safely. The only extra thing you'll need is kitchen scales and a flat workspace.

We want to help you make candles that are sustainable so each of our starter kits come with popular plant waxes - RCX and 464. You pick which one to master. After you purchase your kit you'll be emailed a link to a step-by-step video course taking you through the candle making process.

STEP 3: GET STARTED WITH RECIPES

The hardest part of candle-making is the testing phase and figuring out the perfect formula of wick, wax and fragrance. Once you've found a formula for one fragrance, it may not work for others.

Our in-house lab full of expert candle makers has tried and tested the optimal combinations of fragrance, wax, wick and jars to produce recipes engineered to generate incredible hot and cold throws with a perfect burn profile.

With your core kit in place as well as the theory from the course, you're now ready to work with recipes and you'll be able to troubleshoot problems as they occur. We've split up the recipes by wax type since you've been studying one wax type. Explore between RCX and 464 recipes, pick your favourite fragrance and get creating!
