Wood Wick Candle FAQ

What is a wood wick candle?

A wood wick candle uses a thin, wooden strip instead of a traditional cotton wick. When lit, it creates a soft crackling sound reminiscent of a cozy fireplace while providing a clean, even burn.

How do I light my wood wick candle for the first time?

Trim the wick to ¼ inch before lighting. Light the wick and allow the candle to burn until the wax melts across the entire surface to prevent tunneling.

Why does my wood wick crackle?

The gentle crackling is a signature feature of wood wick candles. It adds ambiance and a comforting, cozy atmosphere to any space.

How long should I burn my candle each time?

For optimal performance, burn your candle for 2–3 hours per session. This allows the wax to melt evenly and helps preserve the fragrance.

How do I maintain my wood wick?

• Always trim the wick to ¼ inch before lighting.

• Remove any debris from the wax surface.

• Keep the wick centered while burning.

Why does the candle smoke sometimes?

Smoke can occur if the wick is too long or if there’s a draft. Trimming the wick and keeping your candle away from vents or fans will minimize smoke.

How do I get the best fragrance experience?

Burn your candle until the wax melts across the full surface. Avoid burning for short intervals, as this can reduce fragrance performance.

How should I store my candles?

Keep candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Proper storage preserves the fragrance and prevents discoloration.
