And if all else fails, just embrace the frosting and use it as a selling point to guarantee that your candles are 100% soy wax! Here is what I would tell customers...

My Candle has a frosted look - Why?

Your candle is 100% Natural Soy - It's a Soy thing :)

The frosted look in 100% Natural Soy Candles is very common and has many names. Some of those names are indicative of their specific traits: "cauliflower bursts", "Frosted", "Snowflakes", "star-bursts", These are some of the names they are described by. Frosting has no effect on the burn quality of your candle, and may be more extreme in darker colored candles.

Many Customers look for these frosted bits as it is a natural characteristic of 100% Natural Soy candles. You know for a fact if it has these bursts it isn't a soy blend or paraffin wax, it is that Natural Soy we all have grown to love :)

Since our candles are All Natural Soy and very Eco-Friendly we do not add harmful chemicals and preservatives that would normally prevent frosting. We do try to minimize the appearance of frosting by switching the pouring temperature and changing the environment the candles cool in. It is practically impossible to have a 100% Natural Soy candle without frosting.

Temperature shifts can create frosting after the fact as well, so going from a hot delivery truck to an air-conditioned home or a cold delivery truck to a nice and cozy home can definitely affect the candle. It's just one of those things we grow to love about our 100% Natural Soy candles!

Show off those Soy Candles and flaunt the beauty of your frosting!
