100 luxury 300 g jars: what the extra weight changes on the bench
Makers who search for 100 candles at 300 g are usually launching a signature piece: a heavy glass jar, a long burn, a price point above the rest of the range. The wax sum is simple. What changes is how the candle behaves while it cools, travels and sits on a shelf.
Big jars cool unevenly
A 300 g fill holds heat far longer than a small tin. The outside sets first and the centre can pull down into a sinkhole around the wick. Many makers plan a second, small top-up pour. That top-up wax has to come from somewhere, and it is not in the 5% allowance unless you put it there. If you top up each jar with even 10 g, 100 jars take another kilogram.
A 1 kg test bag gives only three
At 300 g, 1 kg of wax makes just three candles. That is thin for testing, because you want at least one to burn from start to finish and one to inspect after a few days. A 5 kg bag makes 18, a more honest test budget for a new large jar. CSI 464 costs ₹507.40 per kilogram at both sizes, so testing from a 5 kg bag carries no price penalty.
Price the candle, not just the wax
The wax inside one 300 g candle is ₹140.04 in CSI 464, ₹117.24 in Natural Soy Pearl Wax and ₹175.81 in Premium Coconut Soy Wax CSI 468. Add 24 g of oil, a C2 wick at ₹9.44, a heavy jar and a box, and the candle has to sell at a luxury price to carry them.
Shipping and summer
A finished 300 g candle in glass is heavy and fragile, and freight usually rises with weight. Between April and June, a parcel in a hot van can soften the surface of a heavily scented candle. Pack for heat as well as breakage, and keep your own finished stock in the coolest room you have.

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.
