Soy candles by Soyphisticated Candles are made in Mason City, Iowa, with natural and renewable soy, a small percentage (about 2%) of other vegetable waxes, cotton wicks, fine fragrance oils and essential oils. There is NO paraffin and no beeswax (vegan-friendly) used in Soyphisticated Candles. (Now, we have nothing against the hard-working honey bee and beeswax, but to make candles that appeal to everyone, we don't use beeswax in the blend. There's no need for it. Come here soon to see some 100% beeswax candles for the beeswax lovers (including myself!) The sophisticated fragrances from our soy candles carry beautifully throughout your home- they are exotic and enticing, not faint. We use wonderful premium fragrance oils in our soy candles, as well as make true aromatherapy candles using 100% essential oils. You will find that our soy candles burn cleanly, with very little to no black, sooty buildup as some other types of candles leave. The design of our Iowa soy candles, soy tealights and soy votives is clean and uncomplicated, to match any decor. Color is also available!

Soy oil used in our soy candles is renewable with each growing season, and is just one of the many uses of soybeans. Burning our soy candles is much healthier for you, your family and home, and your environment. We use fine soy wax (refined and hydrogenated soy oil) made specifically for candlemaking, with no additives other than the 2% vegetable wax blend in the mix. This wax contains no pesticide or herbicide residue, nor is it affected by genetic modification. Currently, there are no commercially available soy waxes that are certified Organic, so do not be misled when shopping for soy candles. Our customers are intelligent people, and we treat them as such by not giving out false information. We value honesty and integrity.

Would you like a completely 'green' candle? Look at the Essential Oil Fragrances page for smashing scent choices using only 100% essential oils, and even natural vegetable dyes. We extract our own plant dyes for these!

Don't miss our lotions made with true organic oils, cold-process handmade soap and lip balm to care for your skin.

Enjoy shopping!
