Soft Jelly Candle Wax
Jelly wax is a man-made material composed of mineral oil and polymer compounds, prized for its fully transparent appearance and primarily decorative role in candle making. This soft variant has a melting point of 68°C and a recommended pour temperature of 120-130°C, and is most often used for container-style jelly candles.
Because jelly wax has a relatively high melting point and takes longer to fully liquefy, slow heating over low heat is recommended, since excessive heat causes smoking. Stirring should always be done with a stainless steel tool rather than wood, to avoid introducing extra air bubbles.
Heating below 100°C leaves many bubbles present; the wax becomes fully clear and bubble-free between 130-140°C, while temperatures above 150°C cause yellowing, so careful temperature control is essential.
