Pouring your own wax into beeswax candle moulds is one of the most rewarding ways to use what the hive gives back after extraction. Here are the moulds, candle wicks and fittings for turning clean wax into candles and bars. Candle shapes run from honeycomb designs to a pine tree and a plain cylinder, and every listing gives the mould's dimensions in centimetres.
Those dimensions matter, because the width of the mould decides the wick. Our 60m cotton wick rolls come in #24, #30, #40 and #50 ply, and the roll's product page matches each ply to a candle diameter, so a wider mould needs a heavier ply. A stainless steel wick holder keeps the wick centred while the wax sets. For container candles or a quick batch, the 50-packs of cotton wicks come ready to use, cut to 13cm, 15cm or 20cm.
Most of our soap moulds are made for wax as well. Rectangular bars in two sizes and the oval and rectangular 6-packs suit handmade soap or small beeswax bars for gifts and the market table, and there is a rabbit-shaped soap mould too. Need wax to fill your beeswax candle moulds? Pure West Australian beeswax blocks sit with our other makers supplies, and 500g and 5kg bulk beeswax moulds hold rendered wax until you are ready to pour.

Why Different Wick Size Is Important?
Wick size plays a key role in how well a candle burns. The correct wick allows the wax to melt evenly and supports a steady, controlled flame. If the wick is too thick, the candle may burn too hot and too fast, which can lead to a large flame and soot. If the wick is too small, the candle may tunnel and leave unused wax along the sides. Choosing the right wick ensures a cleaner burn and better candle performance.
IMPORTANT
*The GUIDE above is general in nature and may vary according to the type of wax (Beeswax, Paraffin, Soy, Coconut) as each behave differently. The burn characteristics will also vary with differing ambient temperatures and wax purities. Best solution is to trial your wick selection with your particular wax, and chosen candle diameter.
