A favorite for wax melts, pillar candles, embeds, and votives, Blended Waxes® Pillar Soy Wax (BW-921) is made with 100% soybean oil and uses soy-based additives to enhance performance. It exhibits very good scent throw, vibrant colors, and excellent mold release.

BW-921 is an excellent natural wax for creating smooth and creamy structural candles and melts that resist frosting.

BW-921 is packaged in pastille form for easy scooping and measuring. It is fully plant-based from USA-grown soybeans and requires no additives.

Candle Maker's Notes:
Seeking a stronger hot throw in your melts and pillars? Make sure to weigh your fragrance oils, add them to the wax at 185°F (85°C), and stir for two minutes to ensure the fragrance binds to the wax.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Allow your candles to cure for at least a week for maximum throw.
  • View our Lab Notes for all the details on BW-921.
  • Use our Wick Guide to help get your testing started.

I love this wax
Alicia 2024-10-19

Until recently I have beer a container candle maker. This is my first time trying votives and pillars. Aside from the fact that this wax takes a lot longer to melt, this wax is fantastic. Both the cold and hot throws are perfect, and it holds dye magnificently!

I had a problem with this wax curdling. I used 7% FO. Added at 180 and stored for 3 minutes with pour at 160.

No issues!

I've never had any trouble using this wax for my snap bars. It holds color and fragrance so well and is very easy to work with. I recently tried it in some votives and they came out perfect too!

Fantastic for Wax Melts

I don't trust any other wax for my melts. I blend with a tiny amount of another wax and it's perfect. Amazing HT and CT and the snappiness is terrific.
