I didn't get an answer in my other post, so I'm hoping to get a response here. I'm interested in purchasing the EZ Soy Wax from Bitter Creek North. For those who have worked with this wax, which wicks have you found success with using this wax? I was thinking the ECO 14 wicks would work great, dependent upon the scents of course.


Also, if anyone could give me feedback on the EcoSoya Wax (wholesalesuppliesplus.com), I'd appreciate it. Their site recommends using the HTP wick.

Well, Im gonna post because no one else has answered your question :( I do not make soy candles, so I cant really give you much advise. What I will say based on the research that I have been doing on soy wax, is that most people like useing cotton cored wicks. Of coarse people are all different and I have even seen that some people are useing zink wicks, which burn cooler and "they" say you need a hotter burning wick with soy, so who knows, lol! But the majority from what I have read say cotton cored. Some great candle forums are candletech.com and candlecauldron.com There are alot of candle makers there, as well as tips, etc...and you will most likely get faster answers to your questions then you get here, simply because there are sooooo many candle makers on those boards.

Have you asked anybody over the Bittercreek boards? That might be a great place to ask sincepeople there have a lot of experience with EZSoy. The next best place to ask is www.candletech.com (http://www.candletech.com). You should be able to get LOTS of advice there! From what I have read a lot of people really like using the Eco wicks with this particular soy. I personally would try CD I think, but have not used EZSoy. Just some ideas!

Oops, I saw something else in your post...you had asked about wholesuppliesplus.com. I have not personally used this supplier, but have heard and read MANY complaints that their shipping is completely outrageous. If you do a search over at CandleTech you will see what I mean. It was enough to decide not to even try them, with there being so many other choices.

I love making candles!

See, I think BitterCreeks shipping is high and that wholesalesuppliesplus was much better. Maybe it depends where you live????

Thanks ladies! I will try the other boards. I didn't even think about them. Also, I will look into the shipping and see what the costs will be to Virginia. You guys are awesome!!!
