Think quality when making gel
candles
Gel is an area where it pays hands
down to buy from reputable suppliers. The gel wax gets hotter
than ordinary wax, so the container must be of the right
quality.
Many gel candles contain embeds (items put into the wax to
make them more decorative/attractive). Embeds range from the
wonderfully creative to the dreadfully kitsch, so take a good
look at what's available before ordering.
Embeds can also be fire risks if manufacturers cut corners, so
make sure you buy from a reputable supplier who will have used
non-inflammable embeds - glass is ideal.
