Supply Guides
Short technical notes before you choose what to buy.
Raw Material
What is soy wax?
Soy wax is a vegetable candle base derived from soybean oil. Rufus Soya Wax 50 is in flake form; it is chosen for container candles for clean burning and scent retention.
Wick
What is a candle wick?
The wick is the fuel line that draws wax up to the flame. The size depends on the container's inner diameter, not on candle weight. Soya Wax 50 is oily and may need a firmer wick, but thick is not always right. Trim ~5 mm.
Scent
What is candle fragrance oil?
Candle fragrance oil is the oil-based fragrance oil that gives wax its scent. Essential oils do not hold up in every recipe. In Soya Wax 50 the ceiling averages 8%; in practice 6–10% is weighed and added after the heat.
Dye
What is candle dye?
Candle dye is a pigment or dye that dissolves in wax. At Rufus the granule is oil-based; start at about 1%. Food and water-based dyes leak and spoil the flame. In Soya Wax 50, a dark tone makes frosting more visible.
Getting Started
What does a candle making kit include?
A ready kit gathers the first pour in one box: wax, wick, fragrance, and often a container or mold. The SKU contents depend on the box. For container kits Soya Wax 50 makes sense; for a mold kit look for paraffin.
