Affordable and easy switch from the paraffin tealights. Vegan Friendly. Scented and Unscented! Soy Candles burn slower and longer than petroleum based paraffin candles through burning at a steady even pace and at a cooler temperature bringing a balanced distribution of fragrance throughout the area. They are less likely to trigger allergies by producing very little to none black soot. Clean up is made easier with any soy accidents. Just use hot water, soap, and maybe a sponge. These factors make soy candles more animal and child-friendly than traditional candles. Soy wax is a favorite of environmentally conscious consumers. Made from American-grown soybeans. Soy is biodegradable, a renewable resource, and supports the U.S. economy instead of relying on foreign resources.
