Welcome to Shannah Aromas – Handmade Soy Candles, made locally in Fermoy, Co Cork.

So Why Soy Candles?

Soy wax candles are becoming a more popular alternative to paraffin wax candles because they are made from plant oils which are natural, biodegradable and renewable which makes them a lot more environmentally friendly compared to other candles that use petroleum in their wax.

Made from 100% natural Soy Wax,  we hand-pour all our candles into a glass votive which can be recycled as tumblers glasses, unlike paraffin wax our Soy Wax is non -toxic and are easily removable from the glass using normal hot soapy water.  Better for your health while helping the environment at the same time.  The wicks we use are made from natural cotton and linen as well as our Fragrance oils being paraben free and vegan friendly.

Soy Wax burns up to 30%-50% longer than paraffin wax, therefore soy wax not only burns longer but also cooler and cleaner.

Soy candles produce about 90% less soot than paraffin candles, therefore the burning of soy candles does not increase the CO2 level in the atmosphere like paraffin candles can.

Soy wax is water soluble which means any wax spills can be cleaned up with hot soapy water.

These are but a few of the benefits of using Soy Wax Candles.  We hope you enjoy browsing through our shop and hope you find a scent you like.
