CCS 12 Wax (Soy/Veggie Container Blend)

Introducing CCS #12, the hybrid container blend of soy, vegetable, and paraffin waxes that makes candle-making easy for both new and experienced crafters alike. With its one-pour formulation and minimal shrinkage properties, this wax delivers a close to perfect adhesion every time with little need for double pouring or heat gunning even when working with large containers. Its pour-and-go feature makes it an ideal choice for creating beautiful candles in clear glass without having to worry about varying temperatures or pouring climates. The excellent hot throw performance coupled with easy wick sizing using balanced burning wicks like the CD series make CCS #12 a favorite among many candle makers.

 Recommended Wicks and Wicking

Recommended Wicks: CD Series

Recommendations for wicks based on the type of wax used. Fragrance loads and fragrance types may change wick recommendations. Do factor in the jar height as candles may retain more heat causing the candle burn hotter than normal as it burns deeper in a given vessel.

 Please be sure to perform your own tests before creating your candles in bulk as it is your responsibility to ensure the safety of the finished product by conducting all necessary tests.

CCS #12 is a true one pour blend that is easy to work with, delivering good adhesion and flat candle tops without needing heat gunning. However, due to its oily consistency and minimal shrinkage properties, it may not be very heat resistant and can sweat in warmer climates or direct sunlight much like Coconut 83. Beeswax has proven effective in helping with its heat retention while Vybar can be used for those who prefer vegan options. When using additives such as these, we recommend keeping loads between 1-5% to avoid worsening the blends' adhesion properties. The CD series wicks are stable burning wicks recommended when working with CCS #12's oily consistency since performance wicks like ECO have a more volatile burn profile.
