Beeswax is all
natural, non-toxic,
non-polluting, and
non-allergenic,
unlike Parafin.
Pure beeswax is
naturally sweet
smelling, as well as
smokeless and
dripless when
burned properly and
kept out of drafts. It
has a higher melting
point (about 145
degrees Fahrenheit)
than any other wax,
making the beeswax
candles burn slower
and therefore last
longer.
Beeswax is made
from flowers by
honeybees which is
why it has a delicate,
honey-sweet aroma.
The “wax” is made
by female worker
bees. When building
honeycomb to safely
contain their honey
and the queen’s
baby bees, Worker
Bees secrete wax
using four pairs of
glands on the
underside of her
abdomen. To
produce one pound
of beeswax, these
hardworking
honeybees eat about
ten pounds of
honey, fly 150,000
miles, and visit 33
million flower
blossoms! Beeswax
is a renewable
resource and very
definetly a precious
one.*
