Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 So there are soy candles? Totally vegan? I gave up my candles when I became vegan and can't use the beeswax candles either of course, so I have just lived without candles since that is all I see around here, but maybe I can find these some where. Is there a product name attached to them that you have kept? (you did know that regular candles aren't vegan as well as being toxic?) linda " Whatever you do will be insignificant and it is very important that you do it. " Mohandas Gandhi southernflower I don't know about soy inks, but I bought a soy candle and ohhhhh, it smells sooo good. Like a fresh green apple. And there is no smoke, no nasty carcinogens...I'm not going back to regular candles after this! Bron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hi, If you go through google you can do searches on soy candles soy candles vegan soy candles wax The last one is if you want to make the candles yourself. Here's one of the sights resulting from soy candles vegan http://www.naturalights.com/ It says: " Our toxin-free, vegan-approved wax creates luminaries that are long burning - up to 40 percent longer than their paraffin counterparts, and produce no smoke or toxic soot. " I haven't bought soy candles but it sounds like a good ideas. I make candles, currently from paraffin wax, but moving to soy wax sounds like a good idea. I will investigate this.

It just smelled so good it leaped off the counter into my hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
