These
soot-free candles minimize the risk of allergies and asthma often triggered by
paraffin candles. Beanpod Candles burn up to 30 percent longer than comparable
paraffin candles, use natural cotton wicks and are environmentally friendly.
The
proprietary TEMPACURE process gives Beanpod triple scented candles bold, vivid
hues with distinctive aromas designed to complement and accessorize all home,
entertainment and mood (i.e. yoga, meditation, etc.) environments.

There are a few simple steps
to follow to get the maximum enjoyment from your Beanpod Candles. Soy wax is
softer than paraffin, which is one of the reasons you won't find pillar candles
made of 100% soy. Therefore, votives need to be burned in a tight-fitting
container for maximum fragrance and burn time.
Soy wax does not burn as hot as paraffin wax, so soy candles require a thicker
wick, which does not combust 100%. After each burn, trim the wick to 1/4 to 3/8
of an inch in length to minimize soot and remove any mushrooming of the wick
left by the previous burn.
When lighting a soy candle for the first time, allow the wax to pool all the way
to the sides of the container. (Pooling is simply defined as melted wax. The
initial burn of any candle should last as long as it takes to get the melted wax
all the way to the edges of the jar - about 1" per hour.) This will give
you maximum fragrance and minimize the amount of wax remaining on the sides of
the container. If you don't allow the wax to pool on the first burn of your soy
candle (or any candle), you may get "tunneling", which means the wax
simply burns down the center of the candle, leaving wax on the side of the jar.
