Candle Testing and Review | Tips for Other Candle Makers | (Ep. 9) Soufriere Bay Candles

Join me for candle testing and review of Soufriere Bay Candles. These candle reviews are not just good for feedback but also a great way to learn from other candle makers. We review the candle jars, wax, wicks, labels, packaging, and more. We also of course burn test the candle for performance. These particular candles use C6 (coconut soy) wax and CD wicks. We talk about the best part of the candles and any potential areas for improvement. A big 'Thank you' to Soufriere Bay for sending these in.
