Blended Waxes Paraffin Soy Wax (BW-910) in a bowl
Choose a Variant

A blend of waxes might be your best option when you love what paraffin and soy each have to offer. Comparable to IGI 6006, BW-910 offers excellent fragrance throw in containers and tealights with the visual appeal and usability of soy. Compared with IGI 6006, this wax has a slightly lower melt point and pour temperature, and a more consistent coloration. It requires no additional additives - just add color and fragrance.

  • The weight on slabbed wax can vary slightly.
  • Cases contain 4 slabs of wax packaged together in a reinforced cardboard box.

To help you get the best results from BW-910 check out our lab notes.

I've been making candles almost 2 yrs now. When I did my research of which wax to start out for beginners, I herd the soy blend was great to start with and we end up choose the bw910 After experiencing with this wax the results
was amazing with the HT and CT. If you use the right wicks then you shouldn't get tunneling. I never had any bad experience with this wax. After seeing the bad reviews on here ,you can completely know these candle makers have no experience. Every fragrance can be different but always cure at least 2 weeks to get the best results. If you want to make wax melts then you need a hard pillar wax to hold its mold. I finally got a chance to do this review and I give it a 👍

Not what I expected

So I thought this wax was going to blow me away. The color of the wax came out beautiful and the smooth finish is great. I did 12 candles in an 8 oz tin jar. I used the recommended percent of wax 6%. 6 with this wax and 6 with Coconut/Soy 454 wax. After allowing the candles to sit for the same amount of time, no cold throw. I brought this wax based on the video I watched and I now wasted my tins jars. I am preparing for a trade show and now have to start over and lost my fragrance oil. Just wasteful time and money. I will never buy this wax again. I made the each candle from the same fragrance oil but different wax and the cold throw is strong. I can not even use these as samples for my customer to smell the scents.

I really tried

Just want to say I love CandleScience and I really wanted to love this product. My go to was is a parasoy blend I get from a different company. I made a ton of candles with this wax, and after testing them ZERO hot throw, and a few had no cold throw which was very worrying.

Excellent Wax Blend

BW-910 is my favorite wax. The lab notes were a big help, be sure and study them.
Color and fragrance better than pure soy wax. I use 7.5% fragrance oil and let it cure for 10-14 days. I did have to experiment with wicks for each container. LX and CD series wicks both work well. So far, I have tried 7 fragrance oil in containers from 4 to 12 oz.

So far so good

So I’ve been making candles since 2021 and fur the last 2 years, I’ve been mixing soy wax and paraffin wax together myself in my kitchen. Not knowing that I could get it premixed already. Shipping was amazing. Came within a week and a half. You need a wax cutter but it’s easy to cut. My wax melter holds up to 10 pounds and this wax is melted within 30 minutes. Very easy to mix and pour. Takes color well. Holds the scents very well and both cold and hold throw is amazing. I use a wooden wick and the 8 ounce black tumbler jars . Very smooth too and cohesive look. Let the candles sit for about 2 weeks though. I’m not sure if it was the wax or the wick but I lit one after about 2 days and tunneling happened. The candle did eventually first itself though. Very pleased

Disappointing

This was was so disappointing, I made so many candles only to rest and realize that my got thrown wasn't very good and the cold throw is non existent. Emailing candle science support resulted in someone telling me I used too much oil and I should cotton wicks. Sorry what ?

I love CS fragrances but will unfortunately have to buy was elsewhere. What a waste of money.

Not a big fan

I just tried this wax, and it has been sitting for a few days, the cubes wont come out of the container easily, only thing i really like about this wax is that it has a smooth finish and the ct is good as well. For me this isnt a very good wax for clamshells as it was suggested for them

Excellent Quality

This is the easiest wax I have worked with. Easy to cut and melt. This wax takes fragrance oil with no problem and has a great hot throw. Each candle I pour comes out smooth and shiny with no holes, dips or caverns. I highly recommend this wax for everyone.

Inaccurate Product Photo

BE FOREWARNED: The picture of this wax shown by CandleScience above is not accurate (I checked on multiple devices before coming here to review). If you want a light colored wax, this is not it. I was really frustrated with the wild variations in color between different batches of IGI-6006, so I ordered some of this based on the picture and the statement that this wax has "more consistent coloration." The last batch of 6006 I purchased was so dark, like a hay color, but in years past it was more of an off-white. I was hoping this would be like the old 6006 color, but it's actually darker! I have wax now I probably won't use, and the cost of return shipping wouldn't make it worth the effort. Three stars based on appearance—I have not tested the wax.

Smooth

First time using. Easy to cut and melt. Candles look smooth and glossy no frosting. Took one star away only because I kept finding bits of wax paper in my pot after everything melted down. I thought it was some stubborn wax flake that wouldn’t melt until I finally removed it and saw it was actually paper.
