Environment.  Soy is a renewable resource that supports American farmers.  Black Dog Candles are 100% pure soy wax candles.

Longer Burning.  Soy lasts as much as 3 times longer than regular candles.  The average burn time of our 9 oz candle is 72 hours.

Stronger Scent.  Soy holds scent better than other waxes.  Our candles are heavily drenched in premium fragrance oils. We use the maximum scent load allowed by our soy wax.  This allows for an equally strong scent while burning through the entire candle.

Clean Burning & Non-Toxic.  Soy produces 90% less soot than other waxes and is non-toxic for those with breathing problems.  We also use a Cotton Core wick which is cleaner burning and contains no lead.

• Keep burning candles away from drafts & vents. If candles are burned in a drafty location they may tunnel (not burn all the way out to edge). All candles are prone to tunneling if put in this type of condition because the edge of the wax is not heated enough to melt.
  
  
• Recommended burn time approximately 3 hours at a time or at least until the wax pool is completely melted. (Rule of Thumb - Burn candle for 1 hour per inch of diameter, which is 3 hours for our glass tumblers, 4 hours for our aluminum tins and 1 hour for our votives).
  
  
• Make sure not to trim wick too short. Keep it at approx. 1/2" rather than the 1/4" of conventional parrafin wax candles to make sure it does not burn out and to prevent tunneling.
