Vegetable wax -- the cleaner alternative.

Vegetable wax--the cleaner alternative

A little over decade ago, Carmen and Lynn Milazzo started making vegetable wax candles in their kitchen. The wax they invented was made from “alternative” ingredients such as vegetables and other natural renewable sources. What they were developing was a “gourmet” candle that would burn virtually soot-free and produce long-lasting true to life scents. They were one of the first companies to introduce candles to the fundraising industry. They started retailing their products in 2002.

Did you know that natural renewable resources make up the world around us? They are the air we breathe, the soil we walk on, the water we drink, the vegetables we eat, the wind that blows, the animal life surrounding us and the sun that warms our world.

Vegetable wax is made of the same types of oils that are used in food spreads such as butter and shortening. Paraffin wax is made from the sludge of crude oil. Compare the two waxes. Can you see why the veggie wax is a cleaner burning candle product?

The Milazzo’s gourmet candle products are made in the United States. The development of this product will help keep the American farmers happy and you and your family healthier. Click here to check out the Cleanest Burning Scented Candles Products in the World.

In researching this site, I found that natural wax burns 100% soot-free. So the only candle that would be completely soot-free is unscented. Once the fragrant is added, it is now considered 90% soot-free. The fragrance is what produces the soot in these candles not the wax.

The #1 reason most people purchase candle products is for their fragrance. The Milazzo’s only use the highest quality fragrance oils from the world’s leading fragrance companies, and they spare no expense to give you the most realistic and incredibly smelling wax products in the world.

Gourmet candles burn 30 to 50% longer than a paraffin candle.

Have you ever had to clean up a spilt candle? I sure have and everything the (paraffin) wax got on was runt. One of the things I admire about these products is they clean up with hot soapy water.

The wax is non-flammable, non-toxics, and biodegradable.
