Why do our Tapers cost more than machine-made shrink-wrapped paraffin candles?  Because they're tediously built, a thin layer at a time, by dipping the wick into a tank of Taper Candleshot wax and then allowing that paper-thin layer to cool before the candle is lowered into the hot wax for its next layer…approximately 24 layers for a 7/8" Taper.

The materials used by Creative Candles to make our Taper wax formula is blended of seven waxes, each of which has the highest melting point and is the best of its kind available in the world.

The wick is made of top grade cotton, carefully braided to the perfect size and treated so it will wick the melted wax fuel.   Some of the Taper wicks are imported from Europe at about three times the cost of American-made wicks, and work about twice as well. 

Our Tapers will drip when forced to.  There is no such thing as a "dripless" Taper candle.  Ours have an unusual feature, however; they "recover" and stop dripping as soon as the major disturbance calms down.  Then they re-melt the wax that dripped down the sides and burn it as useful fuel for light.

The wicks connect on our Tapers because they're tied to theTaper Candles from Creative Candles dipping frame in pairs.  Another distinctive quality about our Taper Candles is the variety of beautiful colors.  Not only are they true, but our Tapers are the same color all the way through.  Unlike the machine-made paraffin candles, our Tapers use the same formula of high-melt waxes throughout, making them solid in color and a much longer burning candle.

All of our Gothic Candles, Ball Candles, and Pillar Candles are individually dipped by hand and use the same quality materials and craftsmanship.  And our fragranced candles use only the finest perfume oils, making their fragrances distinct and long-lasting.

Lastly, our candles are beautifully packaged, wrapped in tissue and boxed, an elegant presentation that is worthy of these quality candles.
