Beeswax Block White

Pure beeswax produces a candle that burns longer and cleaner than ordinary paraffin candles. In fact, it has a slow, smokeless flame and it does not drip. Because its melting point is higher than other waxes, its flame gives off more light and heat.

This pure wax is 100% natural and refined through physical processes. The natural wax is melted and filtered through active carbon to remove its scent and color, which may vary from white to off-white. It comes in convenient blocks of 1 kg (2.2 lbs.) each.

Uses: Beeswax can be used in the manufacturing process for many products including candles, cosmetics and soaps.

Warning: When melting beeswax, always use a water bath by placing the container of wax - probably a small saucepan - inside a larger pan of water. Never place a pan of wax directly on a hot plate or gas ring. Beeswax can easily become damaged by localized overheating and if it ignites, can burn more ferociously than any chip pan fire. Beeswax does not boil - it just gets hotter and hotter until it ignites.
