General Wax and Candle is happy to announce that we will now offer a next level candle-making class. We know many of you who have started a candle business need help to perfect your candles and understand how to make corrections when things go wrong like burning performance or flaws in your finished product.
Note:
You MUST have some knowledge/experience about candle making business in order to get the best out of our next level candle class. You can also sign up for our Beginners Candle-Making Class before taking the Next Level Candle Making Class.
Our long-time teacher, Colton La Zar, will guide you through the challenges, explain in detail, and demonstrate the science of candle making. Colton has been in the practices for decades and worked for some of the largest candle manufacturers in North America and Asia. With a background in marketing, research, and development along with many years working inside multiple candle factories, he’ll focus on the important parts of candle making.
He will cover the main waxes and additives on the market for candle making and discuss blending and formulations. He’ll dig deeper to understand candle fragrance oils and how to generate stronger-smelling candles. He’ll discuss wicks and wick selection, and U.S. label regulations. He’ll also cover how to troubleshoot common pouring issues such as cavities, sink holes and frosting, plus cover common burn issues such as sooting and flames that get smaller when burning over time.
Class is approximately 2 hours and is limited to 12 students. Cost for the Next Level candle-making class is 149.99 per student.
