How to use it
On the first burn, let the wax pool reach the full width of the glass — usually two to three hours. Soy wax has a memory, and that first pool sets the pattern for every burn afterwards. Cut it short and the candle will tunnel for the rest of its life.
Trim the wick to about a quarter inch before each lighting to keep the flame low and the burn even. Never burn longer than four hours at a stretch, and keep the candle away from draughts, which pull the flame sideways and make it smoke.

✨ Temple Tip
Keep the empty jar. Once the last of the wax is gone, warm soapy water lifts the residue and the paper label peels away — an amber glass this size is exactly right for holding matches, small tumbled stones or the stubs of chime candles.
Questions & answers
How long does it burn?
Approximately 50 hours with proper wick trimming.
What is it scented with?
A signature blend of 100% natural essential oils — no synthetic fragrance oils.
Where is it made?
Hand-poured in small batches in New Jersey.
Is the container recyclable?
Yes. The amber glass is recyclable and the paper labels are designed to be removed easily for up-cycling.
Why does the first burn matter?
Soy wax retains the shape of its first melt pool. Letting it reach the edge of the glass on the first burn prevents tunnelling later.
Green, clean and quiet — light it and let the evening slow down. #TempleOfDesire
