EcoSoya CB Advanced Soy Candle Wax Logo
Choose a Variant

EcoSoya waxes were a favorite of candle makers for nearly 20 years. When NGI made the decision to close their business in 2019, they left a big gap in the soy wax market. In early 2020, UK-based manufacturer Kerax purchased the brand and these popular soy waxes are, very happily, once again available.

EcoSoya CB-Advanced Soy is a container wax made from 100% soy and soy-based additives. Candles made with CB-Advanced Soy resist frosting, have smooth surfaces, great glass adhesion, and an even burn pool with consistent color retention. This wax ships well in all climates.

Note: Wax is packaged in pastille form.

Great at first

I recently added this wax and was really happy with it at first, but now I'm getting a lot of frosting on the candle tops and the sweating is bad. I'm heating to 185, then adding color and fragrance, mixing for 2 minutes and pouring at 150. My work area stays about 75 degrees, so is pretty consistent. As the candles cool, they are getting frosting on the tops, but the sides are ok. Also, as I burn them, when I extinguish the flame, they will have mottled tops. I have used LX wicks and CD wicks in testing and they both did well. Need your help on how to correct this!

Great

I'm new to candle making, so I made sure before purchasing this wax I read the reviews. My first pours I was getting wrinkle tops so I was discouraged because I was following the instructions, it wasn't until I came back to look at the reviews again to see I needed to cool it down to 140, now I'm getting smooth tops. I also used a Lx20 and the HT is amazing the only problem is I'm get mushrooms

Smooth Tops! 😍

I’ve had a great experience with this wax! After trying GB 444 and 464, I couldn’t deal with the bumpy tops after burning. This truly is a single pour wax, no heat gun necessary on my experience. I’ve yet to even have a sinkhole. I add fragrance oil at 185 stir well for 2 minutes (timed) let cool to 150, stir briefly one final time just to be sure everything is incorporated, and pour. I occasionally have minimal sweating only during burning (does not affect candle performance) I’m starting my business soon and glad I found this wax 🤗

BEST SOY WAX

This is the only soy wax I use now. I get smooth tops everytime. No sinkholes. No cosmetic issues ever. I heat at 185F, FO 8-10%, and pour between 140-150.
Gotta Cure at least 3 full days for testing. Great CT and HT varies. I use LX 22 and Eco 10 wicks in the 4oz mini tumblers and get full melt pools.
Love this wax!

I thought I loved this wax but I experienced sweating and not sure why and my customers are not so happy I’m thinking of trying no dye or color but as I’m ready other reviews it looks it doesn’t matter. Is there a way to stop the sweating?

Awful sweating

I started using this wax after using GB 464 for years.. I liked it because of the smooth, creamy look after the wax dries & because you can pour at a higher temp which means less time waiting around. However, I am experiencing terrible sweating on my candles. With dye & without. I followed directions for this wax to a T & even tried using less FO. I am doing a big event this weekend and am super discouraged and not sure if I should even sell the sweating ones.

Finally!!

This wax is amazing! I’ve had my business since 2019 and it’s been hard to find a soy wax that works well with my jars and tins. I added a little bit of steric to it to avoid sweating. Pouring it at 150-140 is a must. Tops smooth and it has a perfect white creamy color when hardened. Thank you candle science. You’ve made the process so much easier.

Beautiful except the sweating

This is the perfect wax except for the sweating. I read the lab notes but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong to avoid that. I made testers with no fragrance & no dye and the sweating was really bad. Any suggestions?

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to write this review. The lower melt point of EcoSoya CB Advanced can sometimes lead to sweating, and this can also be affected by warmer climates and ambient temperature changes. We recommend always keeping candles in 72-78°F spaces and making sure this temperature stays consistent. Keeping candles out of direct sunlight helps as well.

Just first time user

I love this wax so much , just started making candles and I’m obsessed with this advanced soy CB .. but I have a question.
I left my presto ,on for too long and I think the temp went up to 215 , 220 is that too high? I waited until the temp dropped to 180 and added fragrance and then poured at 165. Smooth tops and candles look good. But I’m worried about them getting too hot when customers use them. Should I wait for a longer cure ? Or start over ? Help
