5 Must-Have Tools That Changed My Candle Business
Share
When I first started making candles, I had no idea which tools I actually needed. After lots of trial and error (and messy wax spills), I found 5 essential tools that every beginner should have. Here’s my list — and yes, the ToAuto Wax Melter is #1.
1. ToAuto Wax Melter (5L)
This is my favorite tool of all time. The 5L ToAuto Wax Melter holds up to 10.6 lbs of wax — enough for over 40 small candles. With digital temperature control, a bottom spigot, and fast heat-up time, it takes the guesswork (and the mess) out of candle making.
��️ Ideal for soy, paraffin, beeswax
�� Melts wax in ~20 mins
�� Pours clean with no spills
2. Digital Thermometer
Helps you monitor wax temperature precisely so you don’t ruin your fragrance load.
3. Wick Centering Devices
Keeps your wicks perfectly aligned while the wax cools.
4. Digital Scale
Essential for accurate wax and fragrance measurements.
5. Heat Gun
Smooths candle tops and fixes sinkholes for a professional finish.
Starting with the right tools, especially a good wax melter, will save you money and time — and give your candles a pro-quality finish.
