Every fragrance page that says anything about load says it as a ceiling — "up to 10% for soy wax". Forty-three of CSI's 107 pages also publish a floor, and in a city with almost no naturally cool pouring window, the floor is the more useful number: it tells you where a careful first batch starts.
7%
the starting candle load published on 43 of 107 CSI fragrance pages — worded "start at 7%", not "up to 10%" · 27 pages state a soy-specific figure · 62 state a soy cure time · CSI live pricing, September 2026
Quick answers — read this first
Which CSI fragrance oils are made for soy? Seventy-five of 107 listings state a candle load at all, and 27 name soy specifically — either "Up to 10% for soy wax" or a band such as "8–10% in soy wax". Twenty-two of those 27 have a buyable 1 kg pack. The rest state a general candle figure, and 32 state nothing about load whatsoever.What load should I actually pour? The band your oil and your wax both allow. Take the higher of the two floors and the lower of the two ceilings. Mint Sandalwood states 7–10%; Luxury Soy Wax Chunks state 8–13%. The operative band is 8–10%, and you start at 8.
Why start at the floor? Because more oil is the first thing every maker reaches for when a candle smells quiet, and it is usually the wrong lever. Pour a ladder, cure it properly, burn it — then climb if the test says to. Climbing is cheap; unlearning a 10% recipe that bleeds is not.
Does the city change anything? Not the price and not the load. It changes the bench: a long hot season, two rain spells and a very short cool window mean your pour temperature, your jar temperature and your cure room need more attention than a soy maker in a cold city ever gives them.
The short answer
Read both pages, and read them for two numbers each: a floor and a ceiling. Most makers read one page for one number. The operative band is the intersection of two bands, and it is often narrower than either of them.
Prefer a page that publishes a starting figure: 43 do. A page that says "start at 7%" has told you what its blender expects a first batch to look like. A page that says only "up to 10%" has told you a limit and left the decision with you.
The cheapest improvement in a hot workroom is not more oil: it is a warm, dry jar, a slower pour, and the full cure. Sixty-two pages state a cure time — usually 48 to 72 hours — and CSI's own Luxury Soy Wax Chunks page asks for a minimum of 48 hours and ideally one to two weeks before burn testing.
In this guide
Seventy-five pages give a soy maker a load to work from and 43 give a starting figure, but only 18 publish a measured flash point and 32 publish nothing about load at all. Shortlist on the long bars, and treat a short bar as a reason to test more carefully rather than as a reason to walk away.

Straight answer
Which fragrance oils suit soy wax, and what load should a Vijayawada soy maker actually pour?
Shortlist the oils whose pages publish a number, then let the pair of pages decide the load. Seventy-five of 107 CSI fragrance listings state a candle load, 27 name soy specifically, and 43 publish a starting figure as well as a limit — that third group is the one worth shortlisting first, because "start at 7%" is a blender telling you what a sensible first batch looks like. Then intersect it with the wax. Luxury Soy Wax Chunks state 8–13%, 10% recommended, fragrance in at 80–90°C and a pour at 70–80°C; Luxury Soy Wax CSI 464 states up to 10%; Premium Coconut Soy CSI 468 states up to 13% with a melt of 50–53°C and a pour of 58–60°C. Put Mint Sandalwood (stated 7–10%, start at 7%) into Chunks and your operative band is 8–10% — the wax has raised your floor. Put the same oil into CSI 464 and the band is 7–10%. Same oil, different starting point, because both pages have a floor and a ceiling and you are allowed only the overlap. For a Vijayawada bench this matters more than it does in a cold city: there is no naturally cool pouring window for most of the year, so an over-loaded candle shows up as bleed and a greasy top far sooner than it would elsewhere. Start at the operative floor, cure for the 48 to 72 hours that 62 pages ask for — longer for a candle you intend to sell — and climb only against a burn test you wrote down.
One line: the load you may pour is the overlap of two published bands, so read the oil page and the wax page for a floor as well as a ceiling, and pour at the higher of the two floors first.
Building a soy shortlist? Royal Apricot 1 kg ₹3,667 and Mint Sandalwood 1 kg ₹4,999 both state 7–10% with a start at 7%; Sacred Sandal Ember 500 g ₹3,999 and Lavender Cranberry Coconut 1 kg ₹7,999 both state 8–10% in soy wax. Four pages, four published bands.

The floor, the ceiling, and four kinds of page
"Up to 10%" tells you where the wax gives up. "Start at 7%" tells you where a careful maker begins. They are not the same sentence and they are not equally useful.
Fragrance pages across this industry have settled into a habit of publishing a maximum. It is the safe number to publish: a ceiling protects the blender and transfers every practical decision to you. A floor is a more generous thing to publish, because it commits the page to an opinion about how the oil behaves at the bottom of its range. On the CSI catalogue, 43 of 107 pages commit to one, usually as "Recommended load – candles 7–10% (start at 7%)", and on a couple of listings as "start at 7–8%".
Sort the whole catalogue by what it publishes and four groups appear. The table names what each group gives a soy maker and what each one leaves you to work out yourself. A blank is not a defect — it is a message that the first burn test is doing more work than usual.
What 107 fragrance pages publish about load · CSI stated page text, September 2026
Four kinds of page, and what each one leaves for you to decide
| Kind of page | Pages | Typical wording | What it gives you | What you still have to decide |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Floor and ceiling | 43 | "Recommended load – candles 7–10% (start at 7%)" | A first batch you can pour without guessing, and a limit | Whether the wax raises the floor, and whether the throw justifies climbing |
| Soy named specifically | 27 | "Up to 10% for soy wax" or "8–10% in soy wax" | A figure tied to the wax family you actually use | Where to start inside the band, where no floor is given |
| A candle band, wax unnamed | 75 in total state a load | "Candle usage rate 6–10% of total wax weight" | A working range for containers generally | Whether soy behaves like the page's assumed wax, by testing |
| Nothing at all | 32 | Scent description only | The profile, and nothing numerical | The entire load question — pour at 8%, cure, burn, decide |
Counted from the page text: 75 of 107 fragrance listings state a candle or soy load in some form; 32 state none. Of those 75, 43 also publish a starting figure and 27 name soy explicitly. The groups overlap — a page can state a soy figure and a starting figure at once, as Zesty Lemon does with "Up to 10% for soy wax" and "8–10% in soy wax – start at 8%". Separately, 62 pages state a cure time, 62 give a discolouration or vanillin answer, and 18 publish a measured flash point.
The mistake: assuming the wax has no floor. The Luxury Soy Wax Chunks page publishes a band, not a maximum: 8–13%, with 10% recommended. So an oil stating "start at 7%" cannot be poured at 7% in that wax and still be inside both pages — the operative floor becomes 8%. Most makers only ever intersect the ceilings, discover the answer is 10%, and never notice that the bottom of the range moved too. Write both bands on the batch card and take the overlap: higher floor, lower ceiling. On a page that states no load at all, you have one band, not two, and 8% is your own assumption rather than anybody's specification.
Two conventions, and why the difference is small but real
This series calculates load as a share of the finished candle: a 120 g candle at 8% is 110.4 g of wax and 9.6 g of oil. Some pages — Mango Coconut and Luxury Soy Wax Chunks among them — phrase their percentage as a share of total wax weight, which for the same 8% would be 120 g of wax plus 9.6 g of oil. The gap is under a gram on a small candle and it is not worth arguing about, but pick one convention, write it on the sheet, and use the same one when you scale. Mixing the two across a production run is how a batch quietly ends up half a per cent out.The 27 pages that name soy
Twenty-seven listings put soy in the sentence rather than leaving it implied, and 22 of them have a buyable 1 kg pack. They split into two wordings, and the wording changes what you do on the day. "Up to 10% for soy wax" is a ceiling with no floor attached. "8–10% in soy wax" is a band. The table below is a working shortlist of the soy-stating listings that carry both a published band and a live 1 kg, with the fragrance cost inside a 120 g candle — the format that does most of the work in a festive Vijayawada range.

The stated soy wording, the kilo price, and the fragrance inside one 120 g candle at the band's floor and ceiling
| Oil | Stated soy load (verbatim) | 1 kg | Per gram | Oil in a 120 g candle at the floor | At the ceiling |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pomegranate Splash Fragrance Oil | "8–10% in soy wax" | ₹3,999 | ₹4.00 | ₹38.39 (9.6 g) | ₹47.99 (12 g) |
| Juicy Orange | "8–10% in soy wax" | ₹7,499 | ₹7.50 | ₹71.99 (9.6 g) | ₹89.99 (12 g) |
| Solar Bloom Fragrance Oil | "8–10% in soy wax" | ₹7,499 | ₹7.50 | ₹71.99 (9.6 g) | ₹89.99 (12 g) |
| Lavender Cranberry Coconut | "8–10% in soy wax" | ₹7,999 | ₹8.00 | ₹76.79 (9.6 g) | ₹95.99 (12 g) |
| Pink Crush Fragrance Oil | "8–10% in soy wax" | ₹8,899 | ₹8.90 | ₹85.43 (9.6 g) | ₹106.79 (12 g) |
| Sacred Sandal Ember | "8–10% in soy wax" | Not live · 500 g ₹3,999 | ₹8.00 | ₹76.78 (9.6 g) | ₹95.98 (12 g) |
| Coffee Vanilla Tobacco | "7–9% in soy wax" | ₹8,599 | ₹8.60 | ₹72.23 (8.4 g) | ₹92.87 (10.8 g) |
| Zesty Lemon Fragrance Oil | "8–10% in soy wax – start at 8%" | ₹3,400 | ₹3.40 | ₹32.64 (9.6 g) | ₹40.80 (12 g) |
Worked out above: oil in a 120 g candle = 120 × load × (kilo price ÷ 1,000). At 8% that is 9.6 g, at 9% 10.8 g, at 10% 12 g, at 7% 8.4 g. Sacred Sandal Ember's per-gram figure is taken from its live 500 g pack at ₹3,999 (₹7.998 a gram), because its 1 kg and 100 g rungs are both out of stock; every other row uses the live 1 kg. The five listings that name soy but have no live kilo are excluded. Loads are quoted verbatim from the product pages and are formulation guidance, not regulatory limits.
Two things are worth pulling out. The first is that the soy-stating group is not a cheap group: only two of the eight rows above sit under ₹4,000 a kilo, which means a maker who insists on a soy-specific published figure is also, in practice, shopping in the middle and upper bands. The second is the Coffee Vanilla Tobacco row: it states 7–9%, not 8–10%, so its ceiling is lower than most and every wax it goes into is capped at 9%. That is the sort of detail that only ever shows up if you read the page rather than the category.
Four soy oils that publish something useful
Each card gives the verbatim stated load, the cure time where one is published, the discolouration answer where one exists, and the honest gaps. The closing figure is the fragrance cost in a 120 g candle at the operative floor against Luxury Soy Wax Chunks — the higher of the two floors, which is the number a first batch is actually poured at.

States 7–10%, start at 7% · and names its own colour risk
Mint Sandalwood
The most completely specified page in this shortlist and a profile that sells well in a temple-adjacent gifting city — cool mint over sandalwood, amber and woods. Its page states a recommended candle load of 7–10% in soy, paraffin or blended wax with a start at 7%, a 48–72 hour cure, and a discolouration answer in plain language: moderate discolouration is possible because of the sandalwood, amber and woody materials. It gives the perfume-grade threshold line for flash point — "Flash point > 93°C (suitable for alcohol-based products)" — which is a threshold and not a measured value, so treat it as such. The commercial catch is the ladder: there is no 15 g and no 500 g rung, so your sample is a ₹299 50 g bottle and your step up from 100 g is straight to the kilo.
| Size | Price | Per kg | 120g candles @ 8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50g | ₹299 | ₹5,980 | ≈5 |
| 100g | ₹549 | ₹5,490 | ≈10 |

The cheapest published floor here · 7% at ₹3.667 a gram
Royal Apricot
The volume option in this set, and the one whose floor is worth the most money. Its page states 7–10% in soy, paraffin or blended wax, start at 7%, a 48–72 hour cure, the "> 93°C" threshold rather than a measured flash point, and a specific colour answer: low-to-moderate discolouration is possible, and the page attributes it to the vanilla content, describing the result as slight cream toning in white wax. At ₹3,667 a kilo, a 120 g candle at the operative 8% floor carries ₹35.20 of oil — the least of the four — which makes it the sensible carrier scent for a 200-piece festive run rather than the signature. Like Mint Sandalwood, the ladder is only three rungs: 50 g, 100 g and 1 kg.
| Size | Price | Per kg | 120g candles @ 8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50g | ₹183 | ₹3,660 | ≈5 |
| 100g | ₹367 | ₹3,670 | ≈10 |

States 8–10% in soy wax · and the rung problem
Sacred Sandal Ember Fragrance Oil
A sandal-and-resin profile whose page is unusually direct about soy: it states a recommended candle load of 8–10% in soy wax, a minimum 48–72 hour cure, wax melts at 10–12%, room sprays at 10–20%, reed diffusers at 15–25% and an attar-style perfume use of 15–20%. On colour it says amber and warm resins may cause golden or amber toning — useful, because that is exactly the wrong surprise on a cream-coloured range. No flash point is published. The honest caveat is availability rather than performance: the 100 g and 1 kg rungs are both out of stock today, and the live route in is a 500 g bottle at ₹3,999. That is the single largest entry ticket on any oil in these five Vijayawada guides, so audition it only if the profile is already central to your plan. One CSI customer, Urvashi Patel, rates it four stars and says it gave them a good end result.
| Size | Price | Per kg | 120g candles @ 8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100g (sold out) | ₹799 | ₹7,990 | ≈10 |
| 500g | ₹3,999 | ₹7,998 | ≈52 |

States 8–10% in soy wax · full five-rung ladder · names the vanilla
Lavender Cranberry Coconut Fragrance Oil
The one page in this set that combines a soy-specific band with a complete ladder, which is what makes it plannable. It states 8–10% in soy wax for candles and 18–22% for an EDP perfume base, and answers the colour question specifically: it contains vanilla, which may cause soft cream or pale golden toning in white or light-coloured wax. No flash point and no cure figure are published, so borrow the wax page's cure and give it the full runway. All five rungs — 15 g, 50 g, 100 g, 500 g, 1 kg — are buyable, so a ₹133 trial bottle is a genuine option here. Worth knowing before you buy the kilo: at ₹7,999 it is ₹9 more than ten 100 g bottles of itself, so buy the kilo for handling, not for price.
| Size | Price | Per kg | 120g candles @ 8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15g | ₹133 | ₹8,866.67 | ≈1 |
| 50g | ₹399 | ₹7,980 | ≈5 |

Sacred Sandal Ember 100 g ₹799 (out of stock), 500 g ₹3,999, 1 kg ₹6,999 (out of stock). Lavender Cranberry Coconut 15 g ₹133, 50 g ₹399, 100 g ₹799, 500 g ₹3,999, 1 kg ₹7,999. Oil per 120 g candle at 8% = 9.6 g × per-gram price: Mint Sandalwood ₹4.999 × 9.6 = ₹47.99 · Royal Apricot ₹3.667 × 9.6 = ₹35.20 · Sacred Sandal Ember ₹7.998 × 9.6 = ₹76.78 · Lavender Cranberry Coconut ₹7.999 × 9.6 = ₹76.79.
What climbing from floor to ceiling costs
Starting at the floor is not only a technical choice. It is a pricing choice, and the amount involved is bigger than most makers expect once it is multiplied by a production run. The table takes the four picks, prices the same candle at the operative floor and at the operative ceiling, and then multiplies the difference by three hundred candles — a plausible single festive commission in a city of Vijayawada's trade.
Floor versus ceiling · 120 g candle in Luxury Soy Wax Chunks · CSI live pricing, September 2026
The same candle at 8% and at its operative ceiling, and what the climb costs over 300 pieces
| Oil | Operative band with Chunks | Oil at the floor | Oil at the ceiling | Difference per candle | Over 300 candles |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Royal Apricot | 8–10% | ₹35.20 | ₹44.00 | ₹8.80 | ₹2,640 |
| Mint Sandalwood | 8–10% | ₹47.99 | ₹59.99 | ₹12.00 | ₹3,600 |
| Sacred Sandal Ember | 8–10% | ₹76.78 | ₹95.98 | ₹19.20 | ₹5,760 |
| Lavender Cranberry Coconut | 8–10% | ₹76.79 | ₹95.99 | ₹19.20 | ₹5,760 |
| Coffee Vanilla Tobacco | 8–9% · the oil caps it | ₹82.55 | ₹92.87 | ₹10.32 | ₹3,096 |
Worked out above: a 120 g candle at 8% holds 9.6 g of oil, at 9% 10.8 g, at 10% 12 g. Operative band = the higher of the two published floors and the lower of the two published ceilings, with Luxury Soy Wax Chunks at 8–13% (10% recommended) as the wax. Mint Sandalwood and Royal Apricot both state 7–10%, so the wax lifts their floor to 8%. Coffee Vanilla Tobacco states 7–9%, so the oil caps the pair at 9% even though the wax would allow 13%. Wax cost is identical across the rows and is left out deliberately: at ₹599 a kilo, 110.4 g of Chunks is ₹66.13 at 8% and 108 g is ₹64.69 at 10%, so the wax line barely moves while the oil line moves a lot.
Read the last column as an experiment budget. On Mint Sandalwood, the difference between pouring a 300-piece run at 8% and at 10% is ₹3,600 — and you cannot know which one your customer prefers until you have burned both. Which is precisely the argument for a load ladder: spend a few hundred rupees finding out on nine jars, so that the ₹3,600 decision is made on evidence instead of nerves.
A ceiling protects the blender. A floor is the only number on a fragrance page that was written to help you pour.

Pouring a load ladder instead of guessing
A load ladder is nine small jars from one 100 g bottle, poured on one afternoon, that answer the only question a ceiling cannot: how much of this oil does this wax, in this room, actually need. Six steps.
1
Write both bands on the card before you weigh anythingOil floor, oil ceiling, wax floor, wax ceiling — four numbers, copied from two pages. Then the operative band underneath them: higher floor, lower ceiling. If either page states nothing, write "not stated" rather than a number you have assumed, so that in three weeks you know which figures were evidence and which were yours.
2
Buy the smallest live rung, not the kiloOn Lavender Cranberry Coconut that is a ₹133 15 g bottle to smell and a ₹799 100 g bottle to pour. On Mint Sandalwood and Royal Apricot there is no 15 g at all, so the 50 g bottle is both the sample and the first pour. Nobody needs a kilo to run a ladder.
3
Pour three loads, three jars eachNine 120 g jars: three at the operative floor, three one point up, three at the operative ceiling. On an 8–10% band that is 9.6 g, 10.8 g and 12 g of oil per jar — 97.2 g in total, which is why the 100 g bottle is exactly the right purchase. Use a weighing scale, never a measure, because load is a weight percentage.
4
Hold the wax page's temperatures and write down what you actually sawLuxury Soy Wax Chunks state fragrance in at 80–90°C and a pour at 70–80°C; Eco Soy CSI 400 specifies adding at 80–90°C, around 85°C, and stirring for two full minutes; CSI 468 is different again at a 50–53°C melt and a 58–60°C pour. Record the thermometer reading, not the target — in a warm room the wax will sit at the top of a window for much longer than you expect.
5
Give both clocks their full runThe oil page's cure figure is the handling minimum: 48 to 72 hours on the 62 pages that state one. The Luxury Soy Wax Chunks page asks for a minimum of 48 hours and ideally one to two weeks before burn testing, and for a candle you intend to sell, 14 to 21 days is normal practice. Lids on, in a closed carton, out of the sun.
6
Burn one jar of each load, in the room your customer will useThree hours, no competing scent. Score minutes to a full melt pool, flame height, soot, and throw at thirty and a hundred and twenty minutes. Very often the middle rung wins and the ceiling jar smells no stronger — which is the result that saves you ₹3,600 on the next three hundred candles. Keep the spare jars for a second burn a week later.
The CSI principle
Pour at the floor first. The ceiling is where the wax stops coping, not where the candle starts smelling good — and the distance between those two points is the whole of your margin.
Every maker who has ever said "it needs more fragrance" had a cheaper option available: a warmer jar, a slower pour, a longer cure, or a different wick. Oil is the most expensive lever on the bench and it is the one people pull first.
Soy on a Vijayawada bench
Soy keeps a record of the room it was poured in. In the Krishna delta that record is legible for most of the year.
A soy maker in a cold hill town fights one problem: wax that sets too fast and pulls away from the glass. A soy maker here fights the opposite for most of the year, and then gets the hill town's problem for about six weeks in January. The list below is general material behaviour you can verify on your own bench in a single afternoon — not CSI specification, and not weather data, because we publish neither. Where a figure is a planning assumption rather than a stated one, it says so.

What you will see on the bench, why soy does it, and the adjustment that costs nothing
| What you see | When it happens | Why soy does it | The free adjustment |
|---|---|---|---|
| The pour window feels endless, then the top sets rough and grainy | The long hot months from March into June | A warm room slows cooling, so the wax sits in its crystallising range far longer than the page's timings assume | Pour at the lower end of the stated range, cool in a shaded spot away from a fan, and stop topping up while the surface is still moving |
| Oil beads on the surface after a day or two — a faint sheen, then droplets | Any warm stretch, and worst on a candle poured near the ceiling of its band | The wax is holding more oil than it comfortably can at that temperature and is releasing the excess | Drop back to the operative floor on the next batch. This is the single clearest signal that the load is too high — not a reason to add more |
| Wet spots appear a day after a batch that looked perfect | The north-east monsoon weeks, October to December, on top of the festive run | Warm wax meeting a jar whose inner surface carries a film of moisture, then shrinking away as it cools | Warm and dry the jars, pour more slowly, and treat wet spots as cosmetic adhesion rather than a fault in the oil |
| A cured candle smells quieter than the one you poured in January | Comparing a hot-season batch with a cool-season batch of the same recipe | Ambient temperature changes how a cured candle releases scent before it is even lit | Re-test seasonally and log the month on the batch card. Do not raise the load to chase a difference the room caused |
| Frosting and small crystal patches on an undyed candle | The short cool spell, roughly December to February | Normal soy crystallisation, more visible when a candle sets quickly | Nothing, if your range is undyed and you say so. If it matters commercially, choose a coloured or opaque vessel instead of fighting the wax |
The mistake: reading a quiet candle as a fragrance problem. In a hot workroom the three most common causes of a disappointing burn are, in order, a cure that was cut short, a wick that never reached the glass, and a jar that was cooler than the wax by more than the wax could handle. Load is fourth. Raising the load is the most expensive of the four fixes and the only one that can make the candle worse — an over-loaded soy candle bleeds, smokes and refuses to hold a clean surface. Work through the first three, in order, before you touch the percentage. The reasoning is set out in can too much fragrance oil make a candle smell weaker.
Ordering soy wax and oil together? Luxury Soy Wax Chunks 1 kg ₹599 with a stated 8–13% band, Luxury Soy Wax CSI 464 1 kg ₹507.40 stated up to 10%, Premium Coconut Soy CSI 468 1 kg ₹650 stated up to 13% with a 58–60°C pour — and Eco Candle Wicks from ₹59 for ten.

The soy order, and the cure runway
Soy is the wax that punishes a rushed calendar, so the order in which you buy matters as much as what you buy. Put the fragrance decision first and the wax second, because a scent that fails cannot be substituted late — your customer has already been told what the candle smells like — whereas a wax can. Then work the dates backwards from the deadline rather than forwards from today. From late September to Diwali on 8 November 2026 is about six weeks, and a 14 to 21 day cure sits inside that with very little to spare once the ladder and the burn test are allowed for.
A practical sequence for a Vijayawada maker planning through Sankranti: order the small bottles now and run the ladder this week; burn at day seven and day fourteen; commit the kilos for Diwali and the Navaratri weeks in the same order; and place the Sankranti order in the same conversation, because the mid-January peak needs pouring in late December and you do not want to be negotiating quantities in the week you are pouring. One kilogram is the largest fragrance pack CSI lists, so anything above that is multiples of the listed packs at the listed rate as a ceiling, quoted on request. Bulk pricing, GST invoicing, and documentation such as an SDS or IFRA paperwork on a named oil are handled on WhatsApp.
The mistake: ordering the 10 kg of wax before the 100 g of oil. Wax is the heavy, cheap, substitutable half of the decision, and it is the half most people buy first because it feels like progress. But the wax's stated band is what sets your floor, so until you know which oil you are pouring you do not know which wax serves it best — Chunks lift a 7% floor to 8%, CSI 464 does not, and CSI 468 pours at a completely different temperature. Buy one kilo of one wax and one 100 g bottle of each shortlisted oil, run the ladder, and only then order the bag. For the wax decision itself, see how to choose the right candle wax.
Why trust this guide
CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA supplies raw materials, not finished candles, and has no shop, warehouse or stockist in Vijayawada. We ship across India and take bulk orders on WhatsApp; that is the entirety of what we can honestly say about getting soy wax and fragrance oil to a Vijayawada bench. This page argues for pouring at the floor of a stated band rather than the ceiling, which means selling you less oil per candle. We would rather do that than have a maker abandon soy because an over-loaded batch bled in April.
Loads, cure times, discolouration answers and flash points are quoted only where the product page states them, verbatim where they are distinctive: 7–10% with a start at 7% on Mint Sandalwood and Royal Apricot, 8–10% in soy wax on Sacred Sandal Ember and Lavender Cranberry Coconut, 7–9% in soy wax on Coffee Vanilla Tobacco. Across the 107 fragrance pages, 75 state a candle load, 43 a starting figure, 27 a soy-specific figure, 62 a cure time, 62 a discolouration or vanillin answer and 18 a measured flash point — the other flash-point statements are the threshold line "> 93°C", which is not a measured value and is not treated as one here. No fragrance page states a shelf life or a storage instruction, so none is claimed. Wax figures — 8–13% with 10% recommended and an 80–90°C add on Luxury Soy Wax Chunks, up to 10% on CSI 464, up to 13% with a 50–53°C melt and 58–60°C pour on CSI 468 — are the wax pages' own. Bench behaviour in the seasonal table is general material behaviour any maker can verify, not CSI specification and not city weather data.

Frequently asked questions
Which CSI fragrance oils state a load for soy wax?
Twenty-seven of 107 name soy specifically, and 22 of those have a buyable 1 kg pack. The wording is one of two: "Up to 10% for soy wax", which is a ceiling with no floor, or a band such as "8–10% in soy wax". A further group states a general candle figure without naming the wax, bringing the total that state any load to 75. The remaining 32 state nothing about load, and on those the 8% you pour is your own assumption rather than the page's.
If the oil says 7–10% and the wax says 8–13%, what do I pour?
8% — the higher of the two floors — and your ceiling is 10%, the lower of the two. Both pages have two edges and you are only allowed the overlap. This catches people out because the ceiling gets all the attention: makers intersect 10% and 13%, correctly get 10%, and never notice that the wax also moved their starting point up from 7%. Write all four numbers on the batch card and derive the operative band from them.
Why start at the bottom of the band rather than the middle?
Because climbing is easy and descending is not. If a cured candle at the floor throws well, you have found the cheapest version of your recipe — on Mint Sandalwood that is ₹12.00 a candle less than the ceiling, or ₹3,600 over a 300-piece run. If it throws quietly, you can add a point and pour again. But a batch poured at the ceiling that bleeds or smokes has to be scrapped, and in a hot workroom an over-loaded soy candle shows that fault quickly.
How long should a soy candle cure before I judge it?
Two clocks. Sixty-two fragrance pages state a cure time, almost always 48 to 72 hours, which is a handling minimum. The Luxury Soy Wax Chunks page asks for a minimum of 48 hours and ideally one to two weeks before burn testing. For a candle you intend to sell, 14 to 21 days is standard practice. Burn at day seven and again at day fourteen and you will see how much of the throw the cure added.
Will these oils discolour a white soy candle?
Three of the four say so themselves. Mint Sandalwood states that moderate discolouration is possible from its sandalwood, amber and woody materials; Royal Apricot states low-to-moderate slight cream toning from its vanilla content; Sacred Sandal Ember states that amber and warm resins may cause golden or amber toning; Lavender Cranberry Coconut states soft cream or pale golden toning from vanilla. A printed warning is a page doing its job. Pour a colour tile beside the first batch and judge it after cure, not at pour time.
Can soy wax and fragrance oil be delivered to Vijayawada in one order?
Yes — CSI ships across India and wax, oils, wicks, jars and accessories all come from the same store, so one order covers the lot. We publish no delivery times, courier names or shipping rates, and there is no CSI counter or stockist in Vijayawada, so plan from the cure rather than from an assumed transit time. For quantities above the listed packs — 1 kg is the largest fragrance pack — send the oils, the kilos and the dates on WhatsApp at +91 7397976926.

Wax figures as stated on the wax pages: Luxury Soy Wax Chunks ₹599/kg, 8–13% with 10% recommended, fragrance in at 80–90°C, pour 70–80°C, cure a minimum of 48 hours and ideally one to two weeks before burn testing; Luxury Soy Wax CSI 464 ₹507.40/kg, up to 10%; Premium Coconut Soy CSI 468 ₹650/kg, up to 13%, melt 50–53°C, pour 58–60°C; Eco Soy CSI 400 ₹399/kg, add fragrance at 80–90°C (85°C) and stir two minutes. Eco Candle Wicks Thin (C1) ₹59 for ten. Candle Making Weighing Scale ₹354. Maths assumptions: fragrance load is a percentage of finished candle weight, so a 120 g candle holds 9.6 g of oil at 8%, 10.8 g at 9% and 12 g at 10%; oil cost = grams × kilo price ÷ 1,000; the 300-candle column is that difference × 300. A 14–21 day cure for soy containers is standard practice rather than a published figure. Bench behaviour in the seasonal table is general material behaviour, not CSI specification and not city weather data. Diwali 2026 is 8 November.
