Casting mould Ribbed candle, twisted

Contents: candle casting mould for cylindrical, ribbed candles with a twist, height 15 cm, 4.6 cm ø, metal wick holder, with detailed instructions.

Mould made of high-quality silicone, a particularly elastic material, easy to demould, dimensionally stable and reusable. Frost- and heat-resistant (from -40°C up to 200°C).

Perfect for casting with rapeseed wax/beeswax (about 220 g) or paraffin wax pellets (about 190 g). The mould can be poured out to different height levels.

In addition, you’ll need a flat wick (we recommend using the flat wick FD19 – item no.31589000) and possibly colour pigments for wax (e.g.item no.31640ff).

And this is how it works:
Use a pointed object to pierce a small hole in the bottom of the silicone casting mould and pull the wick through the resulting hole. Then lay the mould flat on a stable surface. Place the metal wick holder over the opening of the casting mould and insert the other end of the wick into the hole of the wick holder. The wax has to be heated in a water bath and can be dyed if desired. Pour the warm wax carefully into the mould. Let it dry well out, remove the wick from the holder and pull off the mould carefully. Detailed instructions can be found on the package.

There are lots of different ways to cast candles. If you have never cast candles before, then you should start with an easier version, for e.g. with a harmonious colour gradient from dark to light. After demoulding, you can dip the candle partly into a liquid coloured wax. If you want to use the candle rests for further moulding, you should rinse them thoroughly before melting (remove the wick and soot particles).

While casting, many ideas related to this topic will certainly arise.
The candle casting moulds are available in different sizes and shapes.
Apart from that: the self-made candles are also an amazing gift idea!
