East Van Bees makes their candles in the old-timey way without molds or machines. Each candle is hand dipped many times to form the candle you see.
All the candles are created from the highest quality beeswax, cappings beeswax. Cappings wax is the cleanest newest wax the bees produce that seals the cells of the honey. They cut this wax off when they extract the honey and then filter it to 1 micron. They practice sustainable beekeeping so never take more honey or wax than the bees are OK with (they ask them!)
- Natural cotton braided wicks with no additional materials added
- 9+ hour total burn time
- 100% Canadian beeswax
Beeswax will burn clean and with no or very little soot. The wax is environmentally friendly, non-toxic and bio degradable. You could even eat it, although we don't recommend that.
