They're scented with Cardamom and Cedar Fragrance Oil. It’s a unique mix of cinnamon, cedarwood, cashmere, cardamom, and musk.

Recipe

INGREDIENTS:
  • Coconut Soy Wax - 1 lb
  • Cardamom and Cedar Fragrance Oil - 1.75 oz
  • 4 oz Country Glass Jar - 4 Jars
  • Wick Stickers - 10 Sheets (100 Stickers)
EQUIPMENT:
  • Cd-20 Wicks - 10 wicks

Instructions

You will need:

  • Four 4 oz. Clear Glass Jars
  • Four CD-20 Wicks
  • Wick Stickers
  • 14 oz. Coconut Soy Wax
  • 1 oz. Cardamom and Cedar Fragrance Oil

Follow these steps:

1

Place a half-filled pot of water on the stove, bring it to a low simmer, and nest a pouring pitcher or other heat-safe container inside. Add 14 ounces of Coconut Soy Wax and let it begin to melt.

2

Weigh out 1 ounce of Cardamom and Cedar Fragrance Oil into a glass container. Secure the wicks to the bottom of each container using a wick sticker.

3

Once the wax reaches 185° F, remove it from the heat and slowly stir in the fragrance for 1-2 minutes to fully incorporate. Set aside until it cools to 135° F. 

4

Once the wax is at 135° F, pour it slowly into the prepped jars. Center the wicks with a clothespin or other tool. 

5

Let the candles cool for 12-24 hours. Allow them to cure for 3-5 days so the fragrance completely bonds with the wax. Burn your candle until it reaches a full melt pool for best results.
