The Wooden Wick Co. Crackling Wood Candle Wicks and Clips (100 Wicks, Medium) for Coconut and Soy Wax Blend Candles Review (2026)

Who these wicks are for

For makers who have already tested wood wick sizing, or are ready to commit to a full batch of jar candles, this 100 count pack of Medium wood wicks from The Wooden Wick Co is built for coconut and soy wax blends specifically. It fits a small business scaling from single test pours to a full production run, since 100 wicks covers a meaningful batch without buying a case. It is not the starting point for someone unsure which wick thickness they need, since choosing the wrong size here means relighting problems rather than a quick fix, so pair it with a sample kit first if you have not settled on Medium as your size.

Specs and what ships in the pack

Each wick in this Medium pack measures 5 inches long, sized to burn coconut and soy wax blend candles without extra treatment, soaking or doubling wicks together before use, according to the product listing. Listings for wood wicks in this same crackling line confirm the construction, FSC certified wood, hand crafted and finished in the US, with a clip meant to hold the wick straight while wax sets around it. Free clips ship with every wick in this 100 count pack, so each one is ready to center in a jar the moment your wax is poured, cutting out a step that some competing wood wick packs leave you to solve with separate hardware.

Matching the wick to your jar

Medium is sized to fit many standard jar and tumbler widths, so measure your containers before ordering rather than assuming Medium covers every size. Because these are marketed as ready to burn straight from the package, there is no soaking or pre treating step, which shortens setup compared with some cotton wick systems that need priming first. In daily use, wood wicks like these still need trimming between burns and occasional relighting if the flame gutters, and a mismatched size is the most common reason a wood wick will not stay lit, so a short test burn in your actual jar and wax before a full production run is worth the time even with a size that is meant to fit.

Trade-offs against cotton and other wood wick sizes

Wood wicks in general cost more per wick than standard cotton, and this pack is no exception, so factor that into your per candle cost if you are pricing a product line. Sizing is also less forgiving than cotton, since getting it wrong can mean tunneling or a flame that struggles to stay lit, where a cotton wick carries more built in tolerance for a slightly off match. Compared with the Large size wicks from the same brand, which suit wider vessels, this Medium pack is the middle ground for the most common jar and tumbler widths, so if your containers run larger or smaller you will want a different size from the same line rather than forcing Medium to fit.

Verdict and who should pick something else

This pack suits a maker who has confirmed Medium is the right thickness for their coconut or soy blend and wants a full 100 count batch with clips included, in line with our score of 9.2 out of 10. Pick a different option if you have not yet tested wick sizing on your exact wax and jar, since a sample kit will save you from committing to 100 wicks in the wrong thickness, or if budget per wick matters more than wood's crackle and scent throw, where cotton wicks cost less.
