🔥 Step-by-Step Process to Make Floating Daisy Candles
Step 1: Melt the Wax.
· Begin by melting your soy wax.
· Use a double boiler method for safe heating.
· Stir occasionally for even melting.
· Avoid overheating the wax.
Step 2: Prepare the Mould
While the wax melts:
· Create a hole at the center using a wick needle.
· Insert and secure the wick.
· Ensure it stays straight and centered.
Step 3: Add Color & Fragrance
Temperature control is the secret to perfect candles:
· At 70 to 75°C → Add candle colorant
· At 65 to 70°C → Add fragrance oil
· Stir gently for 2 minutes
📏 Fragrance Oil Calculation (Must-Know Formula)
To get the perfect scent strength:
Wax Weight × Fragrance % = Required Oil
Example:
200g wax × 8% = 16g fragrance oil
👉 This ensures a strong yet balanced fragrance throw.
Step 4: Pour the Wax
· Pour wax at around 60 to 65°C into the mould.
· Pour slowly to avoid bubbles
· Keep the wick centered
Step 5: Cure the Candle
· Let it sit in a dust-free space
· Cure for 48–72 hours
⏳ This step is crucial for better scent and finish.
