What to look for in a candle shop in York

  • 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 York?

Handmade candles from York 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 York 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.
