What 5 kg makes
Candles per pack
What 5 kg of wax makes at five sizes
| Candle size | Wax per candle | Candles from 5 kg | Oil needed at 8% | Wicks | Typical vessel |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 g | 92 g | 54 | 0.43 kg | 54 | tins, votives and sample jars |
| 150 g | 138 g | 36 | 0.43 kg | 36 | small gifting jars |
| 200 g | 184 g | 27 | 0.43 kg | 27 | the standard single-wick jar |
| 250 g | 230 g | 21 | 0.42 kg | 21 | larger premium jars |
| 300 g | 276 g | 18 | 0.43 kg | 18 | wide jars and long-burn candles |
5 kg for a small monthly line, and the oil that goes with it
A 5 kg bag suits a maker selling a couple of dozen candles a month: a weekend stall, a small online shop, a steady trickle of gift orders. At 200 g it makes 27. The question most people forget is how much fragrance oil a 5 kg bag drags along with it.
Match the oil to the bag
27 candles at 16 g of oil each need 432 g. That is more than four 100 g bottles and less than half a 1 kg bottle. Use one scent for the whole bag and four 100 g bottles fall short, so you need a fifth.
Plan the scent split before you melt. Nine candles in each of three scents need 144 g of oil per scent, which means two 100 g bottles each, with oil left over to start the next bag.
The usual mistake: Buying one 100 g bottle for each of five scents, then finding that each bottle scents only six 200 g candles (100 ÷ 16 = 6.25) and pouring the rest of the wax with guesswork. Buy oil for the candles you plan, not by the bottle count.
Is 5 kg cheaper than five 1 kg bags?
It depends on the wax, and across most of the range it is not. CSI 464 costs ₹507.40 per kilogram either way, and the Eco Soy CSI 400 5 kg bag is ₹1 more than five 1 kg bags. The two real breaks are Natural Soy Pearl Wax, which drops from ₹450.00 to ₹424.80 per kilogram at 5 kg, and CSI 468, which drops from ₹650.00 to ₹637.00. Buy 5 kg for convenience first and price second.
One open bag for a month
A 5 kg bag is often open for four weeks or more. Close it after every session, keep it off the floor and away from a window that takes afternoon sun. In the humid months, that simple habit matters more than any price difference between packs.
Check with CSI
If you sell through a marketplace and need a tax invoice, ask for a GST invoice when you order on WhatsApp. Ask what delivery will cost to your pin code as well, since on a small order the freight can be a noticeable share of the bill.Where this page fits

Argue against interest
Buy the wax your candle needs, not the bag that looks professional.
We would sell more by telling you to buy 10 kg. On most of our waxes it is not cheaper per kilogram, and wax you cannot use before summer is a storage problem.
Price the candle, not the kilogram.

Why trust this guide
CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA supplies raw materials, not finished candles. We publish every pack price, so every per-kilogram and per-candle figure here can be checked against the product pages — including the ones that show a bigger bag is not cheaper.
Prices are taken from live CSI stock in September 2026. Where a product page does not publish a specification, this guide says so rather than filling the gap.
