Queen B Tealight Candle Making Supplies - VERY LIMITED EDITION
Regular price $149.95 Save $-149.95There are only two ingredients in a Queen B beeswax tealight candle - pure Australian beeswax and a cotton wick. You need to get both right to have a tealight that burns well.
The biggest challenge we faced (as we already had a deep understanding of beeswax) was finding the perfect wick for a beeswax tealight. We were told by the owner of Northern Light candles - who had been selling beeswax blended with macadamia nut oil candles for years - that it was impossible. It turns out that with a lot of humility, observation and tenacity, it was entirely possible. We see he has now followed suit.^
Being candle-makers ourselves, we have never been in the business of selling beeswax candle-making supplies. As we've closed, and I've received many panicked phone calls, we're making a very limited quantity of wicks available in bags of ~500 wicks.
These wicks are exactly what we use. They are coated in beeswax. Of course, how your tealights burn will also depend on the beeswax you are using and how well it has been cleaned.
Our metal cups are made with a significantly thicker grade of aluminium than other tealight cups. If you've bought our tealights in metal cups, you'll be getting that exact same cup.
Our clear cups are a V0 rated polycarbonate. Read more about why I made this exception to my loathing of plastic here.
These supplies do not come with personalised tuition or answers to the many questions that arise when you're making beeswax candles. It is in the observation that the lessons - both candle-making and life - are learned.
^A cautionary note as you look for another beeswax candle supplier... if someone seems very full of themselves online, then take most of what they say with a grain of salt as everything they say will be slanted to make themselves look good. Facts are facts and they don't lie. Ask questions. If they claim they have organic certification, ask to see a copy of it. Trust your intuition.
