 Coloured Beeswax Comb Foundation

Beeswax Comb Foundation sheets have been a popular material for making candles probably since comb foundation was first manufactured.

All of our coloured Comb Foundation is manufactured from pure beeswax.  The beeswax is first filtered to remove all impurities.  This is a very important part of the processing which allows the finished candles to burn very cleanly because of the purity of the beeswax.

The filtered beeswax then has all of the colour removed so that the beeswax is white.  This enables us to obtain very vibrant colours once we add the special oil soluble dyes.

Ordering Information

 Wax bloom
After a few months in cool conditions, beeswax can develop a white powdery appearance known as "bloom".  This is a natural property of beeswax and can be easily removed by carefully warming the beeswax in the sun or with a hairdryer, fan heater etc, or it can be left for its rustic effect.
