Cleaner

Apple Pie Soy Candle

Set the mood for the big feast or create the ultimate hostess gift by making this fragrant soy candle that uses cinnamon, clove bud, lime, and grapefruit essential oils to evoke the smell of fresh apple pie.

Apple Pie Soy Candle

Ingredients:

  • Three 4 oz glass canning jars (feel free to reuse existing candle jars)
  • 3 cups of soy wax
  • 3 candle wicks
  • 5 drops of cinnamon essential oil
  • 2 drops of clove bud essential oil
  • 3 drops of bergamot essential oil
  • 3 drops of grapefruit essential oil

Instructions:

  1. Pour 1 cup of soy candle wax into an empty coffee can. 
  2. Set the coffee can in a stock pot and add a small amount of water to the pot. Bring the water to a slow simmer, until the wax in the can melts. Stir the wax with a spatula until it is completely liquid, with no lumps. Cut the candle wick to 4 inches over the height of the 4 oz glass jar. Wrap the extra candlewick end around a pen or pencil and balance it over the jar, so the wick is centered and straight. 
  3. Carefully pour the melted wax into the glass jar, making sure the candle wick remains upright.
  4. Add all essential oils before the candle sets.
  5. Repeat steps 1 to 5 with the remaining two candles.
  6. Let candles cool and solidify for approximately 2 hours.
  7. Once set, unwrap the pen or pencil from the candle wick and cut the wick to the desired length. 
  8. Light the candles and enjoy them in your home or gift them to family and friends.
