Why does my beeswax candle sometimes seem hard to light?
In order for a candle to work properly it needs to pass melted wax through the wick. Beeswax melts at a higher temperature and requires thicker wicks, therefore it is necessary to hold the lighter next to the wick for a longer time than other candles.

Beeswax Candle Dipping
at
Honeyflow Farm
Wicks for 6 pairs of beeswax candles
are on a frame and dipped into hot wax.
6 pairs of beeswax candles half
finished.
The frame is split in half &
only 3 pairs are now dipped.
The beeswax candles are hanging
in a rack to cool between dipps.
