Small-Batch Candle Business for Beginners: From Kitchen Workspace to Craft Market Table, with Artisan Wax Techniques, Pricing, and Home-Based Brand Building

Most candle makers price their first batch wrong, choose the wrong wax, and skip the burn testing entirely. A year later they are still wondering why their candles do not sell the way they hoped. Small-Batch Candle Business for Beginners closes that gap. Starting from a kitchen counter and working through to a first craft market table, this book covers every stage of the journey in enough depth to actually matter. Wax science, wick selection, and fragrance loading are explained in terms you can apply immediately, not just read and forget. The pour process walks you step by step through your first batch, with the reasoning behind each decision so you can troubleshoot when something does not go according to plan. What You Will Build: - Wax knowledge - soy, paraffin, beeswax, and coconut compared with honest trade-offs, not marketing spin- A tested formula - using the National Candle Association burn testing protocol before a single candle goes on sale- Signature scents - fragrance blending fundamentals and layered pour techniques that make your product stand apart- Real pricing - a full cost-per-candle breakdown that includes labor, so you stop working for free- Market table confidence - inventory planning, display setup, customer conversations, and a post-market review process built in >Pick up your copy and find out exactly how close you already are.
