what's the best way to burn a kozy candle?Our recommended burn time is 3-4 hours. Make sure to trick the wick to 1/4" before each lighting. Don't forget to always allow the melt pool to reach the edges of the jars before extinguishing. This will ensure that the candle burns properly and prevents tunneling. Be sure never to leave a candle unattended or in reach of children, pets or a draft. Allow the jar to cool completely before handling.

Soy candles are better for the environment and your health: they are non-toxic and burn cleaner than paraffin wax. It produces as much as 90% less soot than paraffin wax. This soot can blacken walls, ceilings, and furniture, contaminate ventilation ductwork in your home, and most importantly, add toxic carcinogens into the air that you breathe. Soy also helps U.S. farmers by creating important economic growth for the agricultural sector of the US economy.
