Make Homemade Soy Candles

My friend Liz is always inspiring me with her creativity.  She’s the one who taught me how to make soap, and when I saw her soy candles, I so much wanted to make those, too!

After trying for months to plan a get-together so she could teach me how to make homemade soy candles, and each time having it fall through (due to busyness, sickness, etc.), I finally decided to teach myself! This tutorial is the result of all my research on how to make homemade soy candles.

What You Need to Make Homemade Soy Candles

Affiliate links included below. Read my full disclosure here. 

Here are the basic supplies you’ll need:
  • Half-Pint 8 oz jelly jars
  • Melting Pot/pitcher or an old saucepan to melt the wax in (link goes to melting pot I have)
  • Larger pot to use as a double boiler
  • Soy Wax (the link goes to the exact wax I used)
  • Wicks
  • Scale (any digital scale should work)
  • Thermometer
  • Glue gun, superglue, or wick stickers
  • Mixing spoon (I use an old wooden spoon I found at a flea market)
  • Clothespins or something to hold the wicks straight (try these wick bars)
  • Fragrance oil For each pound of wax I used about 1-2 oz. fragrance oil.
  • Newspapers to protect counters
  • Paper towels
  • Candle warning labels (optional)

How to Make Soy Candles

First, lay out some newspapers to protect your table/counter.
Then stick the wicks on the bottom of the clean jars using a glue gun or superglue.  This just keeps the wicks in one place so they’ll be straighter and not slide all over the place.

Put clothespins over the jars.  I’ve decided that sticking the wick through the metal coil part of the spring holds the wicks better than actually clipping it.

Add a few inches of water to the larger pot and set it on the stove.  Let the water heat while you weigh the wax.

Weigh the Soy Candle Ingredients

Using your scale, weigh the wax into your melting pot.
The first time I made candles, I only made three. 1 lb. of wax filled three 8 oz. jars.
The second time I made candles, I made six, and I used about 2.03 lbs of wax, and that filled the six (8 oz.) jars perfectly.
Remember to use the tare function on the scale, so you aren’t including the weight of your melting pot in the wax weight.
I also weigh out my fragrance oil (in a different container) at this time, if necessary.

Melt the Wax

Add the melting pot filled with wax to your pot of simmering water.  The wax will slowly begin to melt. Make sure you watch it carefully (don’t walk off and leave it), as wax can catch fire (burst into flames) if it gets too hot.

Continue heating, stirring with your spoon, until the wax is completely melted.

Use the thermometer to measure the temperature of the wax (I keep it in there the whole time it’s melting–just attach it to the side of your pot if you can–with less wax this may not be possible).  There are different opinions on what temperature you should heat the wax to (and it also depends on the type of wax you’re using), but I let mine get to about 170-180 degrees.
make homemade soy candles
Once you have the wax at the right temperature (170-180 degrees), remove it from the heat.

Add Fragrance Oil

After removing wax from the heat, add your fragrance oil  Stir to completely blend in the scent with the wax.  (I used 2 oz. of fragrance oil to 1 lb. wax).

Pour Wax Into Jars

You can pour the wax into the jars at any time after adding the fragrance oil (or, if you’ve decided to omit the fragrance, you can pour when the wax is the temperature you’d like). Around 135 degrees is recommended. There are a lot of things to consider when pouring your wax, and one of them is that if you pour at too high of a temperature you might get “sinkholes,” which are little holes that form in the top of your candle as it cools.
The first time I made soy candles, I poured at 140 degrees, and the tops of my candles were smooth and perfect.  The second time, I decided to go with the instructions for my particular wax and container, and I poured at 155 degrees–and got sinkholes.  So, the next time I will be pouring at a lower temperature.
The trick is that you don’t want the wax to cool either too quickly or too slowly.  A friend recommends pouring at around 100 degrees.  I will definitely be using a lower temperature next time.  At least 130 to 140 degrees, and definitely not at 155 like I did last time!
So, after you’ve added the fragrance oil, pour the wax slowly and carefully into the jars.  You don’t want any splashing to occur, as this can make air pockets in your candle.  So just pour as slowly and evenly as you can.

Let the Candles Cool

Readjust your wicks to make sure they are centered and straight.  Then let the candles cool, undisturbed.
As they cool, you will notice that they will start to have a cloudy sort of appearance.

Clean Your Supplies

Right after pouring candles, I clean my supplies by simply wiping them with a dry paper towel. Wipe the thermometer, the stirring spoon, and the melting pot thoroughly.  This prevents the wax from drying and hardening on these items, and they’re very easy to clean if you do it right away.

Allow to Cool for 24 Hours

Eventually, the candles will be completely cooled and solid.  You can then remove the clothespins from the wicks.

Enjoy the delicious fragrance permeating your kitchen (if you made scented candles)!  When my husband and children came into the kitchen, they all wanted to know what the delicious smell was!
make homemade soy candles
Let your candles cool completely at room temperature for at least 24 hours before burning. I’ve read that it’s best to wait a couple of days before burning them, but if you just can’t wait, at least wait 24 hours.

Trim the Wicks

After the candles have completely cooled, you can trim the wicks.  You’ll want to have them at about 1/4″ before burning them (and I don’t have them trimmed that short in these photos).

Decorate Jars for Gift-Giving or Leave Plain

You can use the lids that came with your Mason jars (which looks simple and lovely):

Or, you can embellish them a little bit with decorative lids and maybe a bit of fabric or jute:

Add tags and a label to the bottom with instructions.  I added a label that just said to keep wicks trimmed to 1/4″, etc.

I packaged up these two for a friend’s birthday gift:

We love having candles lit, especially in the fall and winter.  But we burn them all year long and enjoy their warm glow.

Troubleshooting

There are so many variables to deal with when you’re learning how to make homemade soy candles.  And I’ve only made them twice, so I don’t have all the answers!  But I thought I’d address a couple of things that can affect how your candles turn out.

1.  Frosting

This happened to me with my first batch of candles.  It was cold in the house, and I made the candles late in the evening.  My husband turned the thermostat down before bed (as we always do), and it got very cold in the kitchen where my candles were cooling .  As a result, they developed what is called “frosting,” and it basically just has a whitish look around the sides of the candle.  You may be able to see it in the photo below:
make homemade soy candles

The two candles below also have “frosting,” which is the white look on the sides.  Thankfully, since they are white candles, it’s not really very noticeable, and it doesn’t affect how the candle burns.  But to prevent this, try to make candles when it’s warmer outside or when you can keep the heat turned up so that the room temperature is about 70 degrees, which is considered the ideal room temperature for cooling candles.

2.  Sinkholes

This is what happens when you pour the soy wax at too high of a temperature.  The “ideal” temperature apparently varies (different people have different opinions), but lower is better!
The first time I poured at 140-ish degrees, and the tops on my first batch were perfect and smooth.  The second time I poured at around 150-155 degrees, and most of the candles got some little “sinkholes” in the tops of them.  You might be able to see in the photo below, that the wax isn’t perfectly smooth on the top:
make homemade soy candles
So, simply pour your wax at a lower temperature and you can probably prevent or solve the sinkhole problem!
The good thing about sinkholes is that they don’t affect the way your candle burns. But when you’re wanting to give them as gifts, they are less-than-perfect.

3. Off-Centered Wicks

Make sure to center your wicks after you pour the wax into the jar!  I moved my candles (it’s best to leave them undisturbed while they’re cooling), and the wicks slid ever-so-slightly to the side.  When they were completely cooled, I noticed that they weren’t perfectly centered, and I was disappointed that I had forgotten to re-center them.

So, learn from my mistakes, and maybe your first try learning to make homemade soy candles will turn out perfect!  Regardless, I have had so much fun making candles, and I plan to continue making them.  They make wonderful gifts!

I hope you’ve enjoyed learning how to make homemade soy candles!

January 2014 Edit:

I just wanted to add a little note here and say that all of the candles I made back in April and May (2013) have burned beautifully (including the ones with a bit of “frosting,” and the ones with a few small sinkholes). I saved the best ones for gifts, and gave some at Mother’s Day, birthdays, and Christmas. Everyone loves to receive a handmade candle for a gift! I enjoy using my candles, too. It’s almost time to make some more!

October 2014 Edit:

I cannot give advice about selling candles, as I have no experience with this. Most of the candles I’ve made have been for our own use, other than the few I’ve given away to family and friends. I did label the ones I gave away with some basic candle safety and burning tips, and I recommend you do the same. In this tutorial, I’m simply sharing my own experience with soy candle making, and I can’t make any guarantees about success or candle safety.

      Thank you, Nancy! Soy makes very nice candles, and is cleaner burning than paraffin. I also enjoy making beeswax candles, but I’ve found that the soy candles tend to burn longer, it seems.

    Thanks for sharing. Very comprehensive. For anyone looking for supplies I’ve bought from New Directions (google them). You can get small quantities or larger if you’re looking to make a lot. They also have supplies for soap making. Christmas is coming up so hopefully this is helpful to get you started.

    Would they ratios you recommended for your fragrance oils be different if I used Essential oils instead? Like, would they have the same potency, or is one stronger than the other?

    • Joy Kincaid says

      The fragrance oils are a lot more potent than essential oils. You’ll need a lot more essential oil than fragrance oil. Hope that helps!

    Hello! Wonderful recipe — however, my wax was very white and solid by the time the temperature reached 140 degrees. By the time I put it into my jars, it was slightly thick and chunky, and there was a sinkhole around the wick.Could this be the thermometer maybe? I got a different reading from another thermometer, saying it was closer to 120. At what temperature do you notice it turns white? Thank you very much!

    • Joy Kincaid says

      November 26, 2018 at 4:27 pm

      I’ve never had that happen before, so I’m not sure. There are so many variables that come into play. You might try pouring the wax at a lower temperature and see if that works better. It does sound like the thermometer could be faulty if you’re getting a different reading with different thermometers.

      I haven’t tried wooden wicks, so I’m not sure how those would work with these instructions. My favorite fragrance oils are from CandleScience and they work very well. This vanilla one is one of my favorites. It is especially formulated to work well in soy wax.

    I like the thought of having bulk luxury items that usually cost a lot at the store but cost pennies when done yourself. So frugal and beautiful at the same time!
    I will have to try this asap!

      Hi Christina! I wrote this post about 4 years ago, so I’m not really sure how much the cost would be per candle now. A lot also depends on the supplies you’re using and the source. Also, I bought my supplies in bulk, so I had enough to make quite a few batches of candles with what I purchased originally. The startup costs may seem like a lot until you realize that you can get way more than one batch of candles out of it!

      Hi Logan! I’m not sure how it would correspond, because it depends on what you’re weighing. If you’re interested in making candles, you really need a scale in order to weigh out the ingredients. You can get an inexpensive one from Walmart or similar stores for around $6 or $7. Thanks for stopping by, and hope you’re candle-making adventure is a success!

      Hi Donna,

      The only vanilla scent I’ve tried personally is the Vanilla Hazelnut, which is my absolute favorite! I noticed that the description on the French Vanilla is that it’s “a true vanilla scent,” which makes me think it might be at least close to Vanilla Bean (but I’m not totally sure since I haven’t tried it). Hope you find the one you’re hoping for!

      Hi Karissa!

      I'm sorry, I'm not sure how much wax would be needed to fill 200 of the smaller jars.

      There is a formula for figuring out the amount of wax needed, but I haven't used this formula myself. Here's the formula:

      (ounces of wax per container) X (number of containers) = (ounces needed)

      (ounces needed) ÷ 16 (ounces in 1 pound) = (pounds of wax needed)

      Hope that's helpful, and congratulations on your upcoming wedding! ♥

    Hi Joy! I would love to try and make these as favors for my wedding. I will be using jars that are about 4-4 1/2oz. Do you have an idea of how much wax I would need? Thanks!

    HI! Thank you for posting this! I've been wanting to try making one of my own since I'm allergic to the paraffin ones. Something came up when I was trying it though. When I poured the wax, the glue from the glue gun melted and the wick ended up floating around. Did yours stay on the whole time? Did I pour it too hot you think? I'm curious how everyone's seemed to stick properly hahahaha.

    Thank youuuuuuuu!

    Thanks so much for your informative post.
    I have just finished my first soy candles.
    They are perfect! I used the small jelly jars
    and and am going to use them as party favors.
    I did sprinkle some green glitter on them when
    they were almost set because the scent was called
    "Christmas Tree". Fantastic project.

      Ashley Haldeman has left a new comment on your post:

      Just wanted to hop on here and say thanks for your tutorial. I used it last year and gave them as gifts for Christmas (mostly 12oz jars), and I'm planning to try my luck again this year with 8oz jars. I'm excited! This page has been very valuable to me and I'm sure I will always refer back to it. So organized and helpful. Thanks!

      For those asking about start-up costs, I calculated mine last year to be about $80.

      Pitcher- $14.99
      Wicks, 8 dozen (still have a lot left over)- $7.30
      10 lb wax for $18.99
      Fragrance- $15 (optional- I liked and made some of my candles without)
      Thermometer- $8.10
      Jars- I buy at my local grocery store for $8.00 per dozen of 8oz jars.
      Lids- the fancy lids were $12.30 last year and are even cheaper this year at $8.61

      So everything that I bought actually went DOWN in price from last year except the fragrance. All Sample Sets of 4 (1oz each) are around $15 this year– and the single 4oz bottles are around $10.

      Sorry, just had some time on my hands this morning and wanted to encourage people that it's not really expensive to start up – and this year, I already have everything I needed except the wax chips and jars, and I bought another fragrance sampler. So last year I paid around $90 altogether since I bought the fancy lids, but this year I'm using the lids the jars already come with, and spent less than $50 (gonna make 24 candles). You'll always have the pitcher and thermometer, and the wicks will last a long time. Plus, homemade gifts are more valuable than most other gifts, in my humble opinion! I should probably mention that I have Amazon Prime, and that came in very handy. If you don't have it, ask around- I'm sure a friend will help you out so you can get the free shipping… otherwise shipping may cost a lot. Or you can find comparable pricing at craft stores, I'm sure.

      Thanks again, Joy! Happy Thanksgiving.

        Hi!
        I’m wanting to give soy candles as Christmas gifts, which I have to make in bulk (I made 40 beer bread mason jar mixes this year, and they ended up only costing about $3 each gift). Could you comment regarding the approximate total price per candle (either 8 or 12oz) with all the supplies needed? (wax, fragrance, jars, lids, wicks, etc).

        Trying to figure out if this would also be a cost-effective project and gift or if it would be more like $8-10 per candle.
        Thank you!!

I've also never repoured any of my candles, so I'm not familiar with that process. One thought is: I wonder if you're pouring your candles at too high of a temperature? My most successful candles were poured at around 140 degrees.

    Hello,

    I was reading your tutorial and if you don't mind I would like to add a few comments as I make candles for a side job as a living.

    2 oz of fragrance oil per 1 pound of wax is extremely way too much. Back the oil down to 1 oz per pound. This is pretty much the general rule of most chandlers when making candles. A good temperature to add the fragrance is generally about 185 degrees and you need to stir stir very well to mix the oil and wax. I would stir for about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. And when you are ready to pour, stir again and pour very slowly into your jar so as to avoid air pockets/bubbles. Wax can only hold so much oil per pound and it can also clog the wick thus making a pooly scented candle and not make a properly burning candle. Using this much oil could cause the candle to seep oil on top and even cause combustion/fire….And this undoubtedly is why there is not much scent. Also did you cure your candles? Meaning, they need to sit a week or 2 for the oil and wax to bind together.

    Making candles and selling right away is very serious business. It takes a very very long time, even years to perfect and to sell to the public or a fund raiser by just making a few candles is not something I would recommend for any novice. Different fragrances used take different size wicks and they need to be tested each candle and burned for testing purposes right down to the very end of your burn cycle. If you use an lx 16 wick for example on 1 fragrance in the particular jar you use, if might not work in a lighter weight fragrance. This would need a smaller wick. Candle making is all about testing, testing and testing. It is not an instant over night process but months and months or years. Also deep melt pools with high flames can be a fire hazard. There is so very much to learn about candle making. Joining a candle forum is a recommendation to learn about the process I highly recommend. To try and sell to the public after making a few candles I would definitely not recommend and especially a a fund raiser makes me shudder for someone just learning and thinking they are good enough to sell as believe me, they are not. You need insurance, caution labels, proper labels on jars with company name to keep your butt covered.

    Candle making is fun and I love it. Enjoy it. I didn't put this post up to offend anyone. I just tried to make suggestions to help and explain the proper ways to go about. Thankyou and everyone enjoy!

    Joy, Thank you so much for your helpful and clear instructions! My son and I are trying our hand at candle-making to fund a service trip for ourselves. It's been really fun for both of us! I also used supplies from candlescience, specifically the Golden Brands 464 wax, and have really liked them. I'm getting ready to order more now to keep experimenting.

    I am getting pock marks and craters on my candles, so continue to experiment with temperatures and cooling. It gets confusing, because it seems everyone has a different opinion. Fortunately, I have a heat gun from another project and am going to try and smooth the tops with that today.

    Your tip about using the clothes pins was creative and brilliant! That's worked really well for me, and I've even been clipping the "loose" end of the wick into the clip itself to hold it taut and straight while the candles cool.

    Thanks again for taking the time to post your detailed, helpful directions! You've made the beginning steps much easier for me!

Question: I followed candlescience (same oils I used) instructions from their website, the third time I made candles, and they tell you to add the fragrance in at 185. I do not feel that the fragrance was as strong as the ones I made following your directions. Any input as to why?

      Hi Jennifer! I don't know about the essential oils, as I've never tried that or researched it before. The fragrance oil is specifically created for candles and similar applications.

      It seems like I remember hearing of someone who made the candles without any fragrance, and then when she was ready to burn the candles, she added some drops of essential oil on top so the fragrance would be diffused. But I can't vouch for the safety of that, since I haven't researched it.

      Sorry I can't be of more help with that!

      Hi Mrs. W,

      As far as scent strength, I would not say these are better than Yankee. I have a vanilla Yankee candle that someone gave me as a gift, and it fills the room with a delicious vanilla fragrance. These candles don't seem to be as strongly scented. I do prefer soy wax over paraffin, but that might be the only advantage. I pretty much make them for gifts, and people love to receive a handmade candle for a gift. 🙂

      I haven't tried increasing the amount of fragrance oil, and from what I've read it depends on the type/brand of soy wax you use. Each wax has a different limit for the amount of fragrance. If you'd like to look into it more, you may find some answers here:

      In my personal experience as a novice candle maker, adding MORE than 2 ounces of Fragrance oil to a pound of Soy Wax will eventually result in the oil working it's way to the surface and also to a less than perfect burn. 2 ounces is the maximum that I use.

      You know, I haven't estimated the start up cost yet! I bought a 10-lb bag of soy wax, and I still have A LOT left, so I'm not sure what it will turn out to be. I already had a lot of the supplies (jars, glue gun, clothespins, etc.), so it was mostly the wax and fragrance oil that made up the bulk of the cost. If I ever have time to do the math I'll add it to the post!

      Thanks! For 3 candles I used 2 oz. of fragrance oil. (For each lb. of wax, I use about 2 oz. fragrance oil).

      Hi Mary Ann,

      All the supplies you'll need are listed in the post, and there are links to the supplies on Amazon. How much it costs will be determined by what you already have on hand, and from where you order the supplies. For instance, I already had the kitchen scale, jars, glue gun, mixing spoon, etc. I just needed to buy the wax, wicks, melting pot, candy thermometer, and fragrance oil. So, my costs may be lower than someone else's, since I already had those things on hand (and I actually haven't figured out how much I spent–maybe one day I'll try to do that!).

      A fairly easy way to figure out the cost might be to click on the Amazon links, decide what you need to order, and then add up the amount. If you have a local place where you can get supplies (for instance, I bought my candy thermometer and jars at my local grocery store), then you can base your costs on that. You might also be able to find things like a pot to melt the wax in at a local flea market or even garage sales. Garage sales are also sometimes a great place to find jars.

      Hope that's helpful to you!

      Yes!! thank you so much for posting this. My daughter and I are so excited to try your method. When I clicked the link for the wicks there were so many to choose from. I will be using the 8 oz jelly jars. Which size is best for those? Love your recipes as well 🙂

      Hi Jerri! I used the LX 16 wicks that are linked in the post. When I click the link it just goes to that one option. I had to trim my wicks after the candles were made, because they were a little long. Hope that helps!
