What we liked
- + Paraffin-free soy wax made from US Midwest soybeans, for makers who want an all-soy melt
- + Bead form scoops and weighs easily, and the listing says it melts in a microwave, wax melter or double boiler
- + Listing states a 10 percent maximum fragrance load (1.6 oz per lb) and a 160°F heating temperature
Trade-offs
- - 5 lb bag is a small supply if you pour clamshells in volume, so the cost per pound is higher than bulk cases
- - 10 percent fragrance ceiling is lower than the 12 to 15 percent that one parasoy blend in this guide lists
