  • Superior scent throw compared to straight soy wax
  • Cleaner, longer-lasting burns
  • Lower pollution output during manufacturing
  • A smooth, flawless surface after each burn (unlike soy wax, which can appear rough or bumpy)
  • Safe for those with soy or gluten sensitivities

Soy Wax & Deforestation: The Hidden Cost

While often marketed as "natural," soy wax is not inherently sustainable. Large-scale soy cultivation has contributed to widespread deforestation, soil erosion, habitat loss, and water depletion — particularly in South America.

Critical ecosystems affected include:

  • 🌎 The Amazon
  • 🌎 The Cerrado
  • 🌎 The Atlantic Forest
  • 🌎 The Chiquitano Dry Forest
  • 🌎 The Gran Chaco
  • 🌎 The Pampas of Argentina
  • 🌎 North American prairies
  • 🌎 Uruguay's Campos

Natural does not always mean responsible. When crops are grown in monocultures on deforested land, sustainability suffers — and so does the planet.

A Cleaner, More Conscious Choice

That's why we choose coconut apricot wax: a cleaner, more conscious alternative that aligns with our commitment to people, pets, and the environment.

Our coconut-apricot wax is:

  • 🏡 Safe for sensitive households — soy-free, gluten-free, toxin-free

Every candle we make is hand-poured in small batches in Geneva, Illinois, using this premium wax blend. It's the foundation of our commitment to non-toxic, eco-luxury candles you can feel good about burning.
