Recipe: Autumn Forest Candle with "Fresh Fallen Leaves"
Create a soothing, aromatic candle that will fill any room with the cozy scent of a crisp autumn day.
Ingredients:
Instructions for preparation:
Melt the Wax: Place the soy wax in a double boiler. Gently heat the wax until it is completely melted. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature; the target is around 85°C.
Add the Fragrance Oil: Remove the melted wax from the heat. Allow it to cool to approximately 75°C. This is the optimal temperature to add the fragrance oil to ensure a good scent throw without burning off the aroma. Carefully pour the "Fresh Fallen Leaves" fragrance oil into the wax and stir gently for about two minutes to ensure the oil is fully incorporated.
Prepare the Jar: While the wax is cooling, secure the wick to the bottom of your candle jar using a wick sticker or a dab of hot glue. Use a wick centering tool or two pencils to hold the wick upright and centered.
Pour the Candle: Slowly and carefully pour the fragranced wax into the prepared jar. Pour to the desired fill line, leaving a small gap at the top.
Cool and Cure: Let the candle cool and harden completely at room temperature, which may take several hours. Once hardened, trim the wick to about 0.5 cm. For best results and a stronger scent throw, allow the candle to "cure" for at least one to two weeks before burning.
Recommendations for use:
-
Dosage: The 8% fragrance oil concentration provides a strong, balanced scent. You can adjust the percentage to your liking, from 6% for a subtler aroma to 10% for a more potent one.
-
Wax Choice: Soy wax is an excellent choice as it provides a clean, slow burn and a good scent throw.
-
Safety: Always follow proper candle-making safety guidelines. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
