Cera d&

Our yellow beeswax pellets are pure and natural, with the characteristic scent of honey. The pellet format makes it easy to weigh and melt.

It is perfect for pillar candles, dipped candles and natural cosmetics such as balms and creams. It melts at around 62 °C and is worked in a double boiler; in small amounts it can be added to soy or paraffin to make them harder. Its natural scent tends to mask more delicate fragrances, and finding the right wick takes some trials.

Available in a 1 kg pack.
