Looking for a wax that is
sustainable, eco-friendly and virtually soot free? Do you want that same wax to
be unique looking with excellent hot and cold scent throw? Our palm waxes may
be for you! Our Feather Palm wax creates a unique crystal structure within the
candles interior and exterior during the cooling process that creates patterns
that look similar to a feather. Our palm waxes come from RSPO sources and are
made from 100% natural palm based raw materials and contain no
paraffin/polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. Feather Palm Wax 5601-A comes in
granular form for easy weighing and storage and can be used to make pillar
candles, votive candles, wax melts and taper candles. A very versatile wax with
an exceptionally unique look!

Instructions for use:
Palm wax is
best suited for use in seamless aluminum molds. Liquid, chip and powdered dyes
seem to work best in palm waxes. Other dyes may interrupt the crystalline
structure and appearance of the wax.
Heat wax to 205-210* add dye, blend well and then add fragrance and blend well.
Feather palm wax will hold up to 6% fragrance by weight. Pour the wax between
200-205* into heated molds for best results. This wax will require re-pours.
Wait until the surface of the candle has crusted over, poke multiple relief
holes through the surface of the candle around the wick and about 3/4 of the
way down the candle, the candle center will still be fluid at this point and
fill with reserved wax heated 10* hotter than the first pour. Repeat this
process as needed. Palm waxes should be cooled a slowly as possible to inhibit
the crystal structure to form fully. This can be done in a Styrofoam cooler or
other insulated box. It is advised to use mold release when making palm candles
in any mold.

can only offer recommendations as to what wax will perhaps work best
for you but we cannot guarantee any certain wax to work best in any
