Mould candles are crafted using specialized moulds that shape the candle into various designs, offering more intricate and consistent forms compared to hand-poured or dipped candles. These candles are versatile, allowing for creative expressions in shapes such as pillars, spheres, or themed figures like animals and flowers. Mould candles are commonly made from materials like paraffin wax, soy wax, or beeswax, with each type offering unique qualities in burn time, scent throw, and environmental impact.

The process of making mould candles involves melting the chosen wax, adding dyes, scents, or essential oils if desired, and pouring the mixture into a prepared mould. A wick is centered within the mould, often held in place using a wick holder or stick. Once the wax cools and hardens, the candle is carefully removed from the mould, revealing its final shape.

Mould candles are popular for both decorative and functional uses. They make excellent gifts, event décor, or centerpieces due to their striking designs. Their production allows hobbyists and professionals to experiment with endless variations in size, color, and fragrance, making them a favorite in the candle-making community. Proper mould care, including cleaning and pre-treatment, ensures durability and consistent results.
