When it comes to candles, the ingredients make all the difference. At Witchy Philly Candle Co., we craft our luxury soy candles to ensure a clean, long-lasting burn—no toxic paraffin here! Choosing the right candle isn’t just about fragrance—it’s about what you’re breathing in, how it affects your space, and even its impact on the environment.

The Soy Advantage

Our soy candles are made from renewable soybean oil, providing a cleaner burn that minimizes soot and toxins. Unlike paraffin, which releases harmful chemicals like benzene and toluene when burned, soy wax burns purely, ensuring that the air in your home remains free from pollutants. This makes soy candles a safer choice, especially for households with children, pets, or those with respiratory sensitivities.

Additionally, soy wax burns at a lower temperature, meaning our candles last longer, giving you more hours of cozy ambiance. The slower burn also allows the fragrance to disperse gently and evenly, providing a more consistent scent experience without being overpowering.

Health & Environment

Unlike paraffin, which is derived from petroleum, our non-toxic candles support a healthier environment in your home. The soot and toxins released by paraffin-based candles can accumulate on walls, furniture, and even in your lungs. Soy candles, on the other hand, produce minimal soot, reducing indoor air pollution and maintaining a cleaner living space.

From an environmental standpoint, soy wax is biodegradable and sourced from sustainable crops, making it a much greener alternative to paraffin. At Witchy Philly Candle Co., we prioritize sustainability, using eco-friendly wicks and fragrance oils free from phthalates, parabens, and other harmful chemicals. When you choose soy, you’re not just choosing a better candle—you’re making a choice that supports a cleaner planet.

Why Quality Matters

Not all candles are created equal, even among soy-based options. At Witchy Philly Candle Co., we take pride in hand-pouring every candle in small batches to ensure top-quality craftsmanship. We carefully select fragrance oils that complement the natural properties of soy wax, creating candles that fill your home with inviting, complex aromas without the synthetic harshness of mass-produced candles.
