For family dinners or special dinner parties, beeswax is the way to go. Don’t poison your famly or guests with toxic candles! Beeswax tapers are beautiful and fit any decor from heritage to totally modern.

Please visit this blog page to see how I make beeswax tapers.

Beeswax is the only natural, non-toxic, non-allergenic, sustainable candle wax. You don’t need toxic waxes, colours or ‘fragrances’ competing with the food you prepare. If you’re interested in learning more, please visit The Lowdown on Candle Waxes, which gives important information about the various types of candle wax and why you should burn only pure beeswax.

Beeswax burns cleaner, brighter, hotter and longer, dripless and smokeless in a still location. See bottom of page for a picture of a candle comparison test between beeswax and paraffin.

“Just had to send you a note to let you know I received the candles. They’re beautiful, they burn clean and smell nice too. They will be a perfect addition to our All Souls’ Day commemoration.” From a priest in Newfoundland, for whom I made extra fat tapers.

Authentic hand-dipped beeswax tapers

I don’t use a mold. I prefer the time-honoured method, dipping approx. 30 times in a custom made stainless steel vat. It takes much longer, but the results are worth it!

• These truly hand-crafted candles are no more expensive than molded tapers.
• Beeswax tapers burn at a much slower rate than paraffin, less than 1″ per hour, making then more economical than you would first think.
• Do your inferior quality wax tapers burn for more than 12 hours?
• Need a particular circumference and/or height? I’m happy to dip custom-sized tapers for you.
