What to look for in a candle shop in St. Louis

  • Read reviews for scent throw and consistency — weak scent or tunneling are the usual complaints.
  • Look for soy, coconut, or beeswax wax if you want a cleaner, longer burn than paraffin.

  • What's your policy if the scent isn't right?
  • What wax and wick do you use, and how long does it burn?
  • Are the fragrances phthalate-free or made with essential oils?
  • Do you make candles in-house or resell?
  • Do you offer custom scents or gift sets?

Frequently asked questions

How much do handmade candles cost in St. Louis?

Handmade candles from St. Louis shops usually run $15 to $40 depending on size, wax, and scent. Soy and beeswax cost more than paraffin but burn cleaner and longer.

What is the best type of candle wax?

Soy, coconut, and beeswax burn cleaner and longer than paraffin and hold scent well. Many St. Louis makers use them, so ask what a shop pours.

Why is my candle tunneling or burning too fast?

It is usually a wick or wax-pool issue. Trim the wick to about a quarter inch and let the first burn melt the top edge to edge. A good shop can recommend the right size.

Do St. Louis candle shops make custom scents or gift sets?

Many small makers offer custom scents, gift sets, and local pickup. Ask the shops above, as it is a common request for weddings and events.
