FAQ
At Candletruck, we hand-pour our candles with 100% natural soy wax, premium fragrance oils, and wooden wicks. Our candles are free from paraffin, parabens, and phthalates, ensuring a clean and safe burn. We carefully choose all our materials for their quality and sustainability.
To ensure the best burn, trim the wooden wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting. Allow the wax to melt evenly across the surface each time you burn the candle to prevent tunneling (around 2 hours to reach full melt pool). Always burn your candle within sight and keep it away from drafts or flammable objects.
Our 7oz candles burn for approximately 40 hours. To get the most out of your candle, we recommend trimming the wick before each use to prevent excessive soot and ensure an even burn.
This is known as frosting — a natural crystallization that occurs in soy wax due to its molecular structure. It happens when the wax cools and solidifies, especially in temperature fluctuations. Frosting is common in 100% soy candles and is a sign of a natural, additive-free product; it does not affect the performance, scent throw, or burn quality of your candle. We embrace these small imperfections as part of the handmade charm.
This is a natural characteristic of pure soy wax. As the wax cools and re-solidifies after burning, the rate of cooling and the crystal structure of the soy wax can lead to an uneven or bumpy surface. Unlike paraffin, soy wax is a plant-based material with a softer, more delicate composition, which makes it more prone to these textural changes. This doesn’t affect the performance or quality of the candle—just a sign you’re enjoying a clean, plant-based product!

Absolutely! We love the idea of our vessels having a second life. Once your candle has burned down, you can easily clean out the remaining wax and repurpose the jar. It can be used for everything from holding small plants to storing office supplies or even as a decorative piece. We hope our candles inspire creativity even after their initial burn!
