Why You'll Love Our Beeswax Candles


100% Pure Beeswax

100% Pure Beeswax

We use only clean, lightly filtered, 100% pure beeswax from beeswax cappings in our beeswax candles, with no fillers or additives. Its non-toxic properties make it perfect for a clean burning and bright fuel source as a beeswax candle.

All of our beeswax is made in the USA.

Unlike paraffin candles, beeswax is hypo-allergenic, great for people with allergies or other sensitivities, and those of us who want a clean burning candle in our homes.

Our Beeswax Candles are Hand Poured

Hand Poured & Hand Finished

We craft all of our beeswax candles by hand. It takes an experienced hand to ensure each candle is perfect - we don't want any air bubbles, crooked wicks, or other imperfections. Each candle is inspected to ensure its quality. We have no "factory second" beeswax candles; if the candle doesn't make the grade, it goes right back into the wax melter.

Some candle makers will ship you their product directly after removing it from the mold where it is often unleveled, uneven, and simply unattractive. We've always taken the time to carefully hand finish each candle so that our beeswax candles are as stunning to look at as they are beautiful to burn.

Beeswax is Naturally Honey Scented

Honey Scented

Our beeswax candles naturally give off a luscious honey aroma. Scent varies slightly based on honey, pollen, and propolis present in the beeswax.

A candle's scent throw (i.e. the candle's ability to deliver an aroma) varies based on personal sensitivities and environment.

Beeswax is Naturally Golden Colored

Golden Colored

The raw beeswax we use comes from the hive as a light golden yellow color, which we call "Natural" when we refer to the candle's color. The natural color of beeswax is determined by the remaining pollen and propolis in the wax; this color varies a little between each batch.

Our naturally golden colored beeswax candles do not contain dyes.

Beeswax Bloom

Antique Look

Bloom is a white film that naturally appears on beeswax over time. Our colorful beeswax candles can be kept polished for a shiny modern look or let their age show by allowing the bloom to appear over time.

The bright color of beeswax is a great backdrop for showcasing the white antique finish of the bloom.

Beeswax Candles Are Smoke and Soot Free

Smoke & Soot Free

Using clean burning beeswax candles is an excellent way to keep your home free of the smoke and soot that is a common result of burning paraffin candles.

When burned in a draft free environment with the wick trimmed to 1/4" a beeswax candle will burn bright and clean with virtually no smoke or soot.

Beeswax Generates Negative Ions

Beeswax May Have Health Benefits

Negative ions are most commonly found near moving water, such as crashing waves, thunderstorms, and waterfalls. Negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase levels of the mood chemical serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy.

While it is still debated and not yet scientifically proven, it is believed that there are other natural negative ion generators too, including our specialty, beeswax candles.

Beeswax Candles are Drip Resistant

Naturally Drip Resistant

A beeswax candle is less likely to drip than other types of candles because of the complex molecular structure and higher melting point of beeswax. This allows the wick to burn the molten beeswax at just the right pace so it doesn't drip out of the wax pool. These qualities combined with a properly maintained wick, a level burning surface, and draft free environment will help prevent drips from occurring.

Beeswax candles are naturally drip resistant. Paraffin candles require chemical additives, like stearic acid, to make them drip less.

Additional Details & Candle Safety


Candle Sizing

Candle Size

We hand pour and hand finish each of our beeswax pillar candles. The dimensions listed are an approximation and will vary slightly for each candle. Please consider each candle a work of art.

We make outstanding candles, but we are humans, not machines. Learn more about why candle size varies.

Burn Times

Burn Time

Burn time is a close approximation and will vary somewhat based on your environment and burning preferences. Our listed burning times are conservative averages, not a guarantee. Proper wick maintenance helps (keep wick trimmed, avoid drafts).

Some wax will remain unused after the wick has been fully burned, this is normal.

 General Candle Safety

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Keep candles away from children.
  • Burn candles in a draft-free environment.
  • Keep the wick trimmed to 1/4".

 See Beeswax Candle Safety for more safety tips.

 Pillar Burning Tips

  • Burn 4" wide pillars for at least 5 hours per session.
  • Use a pillar plate.
  • Hug your beeswax pillar candles.
  • Not for use in a hurricane container.

  2. Question

    Anonymous

    We are enjoying the candles, love their purity and the size and shape of the pillars we ordered. Also appreciate the care instructions that were included. We’ve followed the suggestions to avoid tunneling and have been trying to push the softened edges toward the center of the pillar after burning it for the recommended amount of time, but the edges are too think and not soft enough to ease toward the center, causing some tunneling. Also the wick still drowns in wax and won’t burn well unless the pillar is held upside down with a match under it to melt the wax around the wick. That works to get it burning again, but leaves black soot around the top (not as pretty!). Still, the candles are great and a lot of fun to have around the house! Thank you- Adina

      Thanks for your feedback!

      If the candle is tunneling it means the candle isn’t being burned long enough per session. The 4” diameter pillars need at least 4-6 hours of burn time per session; if the sides aren’t soft enough to push them in, let it burn longer. It does take time.

      We recommend using a lighter to light the base of the wick. You shouldn’t need to hold the candle upside down, though with a match it can be more difficult. It will take 3-5 seconds to get the wax melted enough to start the wick. Beeswax has a higher melting point that other waxes and takes a bit to get the wax to melt around the wick.

  3. Finally a “real” candle!

    Anonymous

    I finally found the perfect candle. It is absolutely beautiful and does not produce soot. The flame is bright and warm. When I read that the candle was honey scented I hesitated because scented candles are nor for me. However, the scent is very light and natural.
    I will be back to order more.

  5. Beautiful candles!

    Anonymous

    I recently placed an order for pure beeswax candles. I was a first time buyer and chose your company because I liked your website and the great selection offered. I ordered several sizes of pillar candles and also votives. The order came quickly, was expertly packed, and the candles are beautiful and smell great. I can’t wait to use them and I’m sure I will purchase again. Thank you!

  11. So much more than a candle!

    Brianne

    These candles are simply amazing, and I have vowed to never burn anything but them in my home. I have a super sensitive system, and these candles have been a true blessing to me and my family! Not only do they smell great, they last such a long time and are completely worth the investment. Thank you, Bee Hive, for your quality of your products and the care you put into them!
