Tip- for candlemakers – Stearic Acid makes candles burn longer and increases melt point. Allows the candle maker to blend in more fragrance for better cold throw and hot throw of fragrances. To start use 1 – 2 tbsp per pound, or about 6% by weight. Using more will also make the candle whiter and more opaque.
