  Cinnamon Roll Candles

Candles and or scents that employ a "home or kitchen" theme always do very well in the market place. Fragrances such as Apple Pie, Sugar Cookie, Banana Nut Bread and Chocolate chip are always good selling fragrances in all types of candles. Actual candles that use the kitchen theme such as the Cake Candle©, the pies and now the Cinnamon bun or roll are always very good selling candles.

The cinnamon roll can now be made much easier with a new mold (M-406) available from Candlewic. To begin, wick the Polyurethane mold with the appropriate wick. Depending on your scent load, we would recommend you try either the 24 Ply or 27 Ply. Be sure to leave extra length of wick on the bottom to make it easier for your next candle. (When you pull the candle out of the mold you will be wicking the candle for the next pour).

For this candle, we would suggest you take the CBL-141 wax and heat up to around 185-195 F. Then add your desired amount of brown color (Brown Color Buttons CB-7) add anywhere from 4-7% of our Cinnamon Bun Scent (S-85).

Pour your wax and wait for the candle to set up, you will have to top off the candle as well. When the candle is removed from mold take a syringe or small spoon and fill in cavities on the top of the candle (not to top) with a darker formulation of the brown CBL-141 color. This offers a nice contrast. The next step is to dye some CBL-141 white using the White Color Buttons (CB-12) and apply a coating of this wax to the top and sides as if applying icing to a real cinnamon bun. After these steps are completed, smooth off the bottom on a hot plate.

The result of this candle may be so astounding that you may have to place a large warning notice "Not Edible!"
