Candle Making Supplies in Bengaluru — Soy Wax, Fragrance Oils & Silicone Moulds

Bengaluru is India's most innovation-friendly city — a place where a software engineer moonlights as a candle entrepreneur, where co-working spaces host weekend maker workshops, and where artisan gifting has become a booming side economy. From Indiranagar's boutique-lined streets to the creative hubs of Koramangala, HSR Layout, and Jayanagar, Bengaluru has one of India's most active candle-making communities.

Why Bengaluru Is Ideal for Candle Making

• Temperature stays between 18–32°C year-round — near-ideal for wax handling, pouring, and curing.
• Monsoon humidity (70–80%) requires a 72-hour cure minimum for soy candles.
• Cool evenings (18–22°C) make October–February perfect for large production runs.
• No extreme heat summers — wax storage is far less problematic than in Delhi or Jaipur.

Step-by-Step Candle Making Guide for Bengaluru

1. Melt soy wax to 70–75°C in a double boiler.
2. Add fragrance at 65°C — use 8–10% by weight. Err toward 10% for Bengaluru's cooler evenings.
3. Pour at 55–60°C. Work quickly — Bengaluru's cooler climate means wax sets faster.
4. Cure for 48–72 hours. Room temperature curing works well here without needing AC.
5. First burn: 3 hours minimum to establish a full melt pool.
