Dry Hard Soy Wax Flakes for Candle Making
Dry hard soy wax is useful for making pillar candles, wax melts, molded candles, and other shaped wax crafts that need better firmness. This hard type soy wax holds its shape better in warm Sri Lankan weather, making it a practical choice for candle makers who want cleaner, stronger results without too much sweating.
Made from soy oil, this unscented soy wax has a dry, firm texture once set. It is better suited for non-container candles than soft oily soy wax. With a melting point of around 50-55 °C, it gives good structure for molds, wax melts, decorative shapes, and handmade candle projects.
Dry soy wax has a lighter fragrance throw than oily container wax, but it gives a neat white finish and better shape retention. It can also be blended with softer soy wax or other natural waxes when you want to adjust hardness, scent throw, or finish.
