Candle frosting" refers to a white, crystalline coating that can appear on candles made from natural waxes like soy, essentially the wax returning to its natural state by forming crystals as it cools, and while it may look aesthetically unappealing, it doesn't affect the candle's burning quality or fragrance; it's considered a sign of pure soy wax and is purely cosmetic in nature.
Cause: Primarily occurs due to the crystallization of natural waxes like soy as they cool, especially when the cooling process is uneven.
Appearance: Looks like a frosty film or white marbling on the candle surface.
Impact on burning: Does not affect how the candle burns or the scent throw.
Prevention methods: To minimize frosting, ensure consistent cooling temperature and consider using additives designed to reduce crystallization.
Perception: While some people may find frosting undesirable, it's often seen as a sign of a high-quality, natural soy candle.
So fear not. A little frosting won't affect your candle and it won't be a hinderance to promoting a clean non-toxic burn!
