Starting Soy Candle Business

18 years ago

I have been approached to sell Soy Candles on consignment at a business, which will be built in the summer.

I have never made soy candles in my life and would like some recommendations or hints if possible. I have found a supplier (Enchanted Lites Candle Company), which seems to have a good reputation and actually is the closest to my home.

Some additional questions I have are:

1) What recipe for ingredients do you use?

2) How large of batches(in double boiler) do you make?

3) Any labeling ideas?

4) I want to make 5 different scents to start, which would you recommend?

5) I am looking at making 15 oz size and any other size you would recommend?

6) What size wick would or should one use?

Any hints to start would be great!

thanks,

Dean
