Different Types of Candle Molds for Candle Making

These votive molds are our most popular selling molds and are very easy to use. They produce a votive candle which is about 2 ounces in size and will burn for approximately 15 hours.

Our seamless aluminum molds produce round pillar candles. They are constructed of a highly durable and rigid aluminum. The bottom of the mold (top of the candle) has a slight concave shape to contain the initial melt pool once the candle is lit. A wick hole is already present in the mold and various sizes are available.
