Product Details

European Golden Wax 464 is crafted from responsibly sourced soybean oil. It’s GMO-free, vegan-friendly, and made under AAK’s strong sustainability standards. Developed in close collaboration with Candle Shack, this wax is tailored specifically for candle making and offers a more consistent performance than the US Golden Wax 464.

It pours across a wide range of temperatures and produces smooth surfaces, vibrant colours, and excellent scent throw. Frosting is reduced compared to the US version, though darker colours may still show slight frosting. Unlike the American wax, it has a pale appearance when first melted, turning golden only if held at 70°C or higher overnight.

When working with blocks, we recommend melting and stirring fully, as small variations in component distribution can occur during cooling.

For best results, cure candles for 2 days at ambient temperature, followed by 7–14 days to maximise scent throw.

The 464 soy wax this is a block which I have not used before but it is as self leveling as the flakes or pellets. It is just cutting into bumps so it can be melted is the only problem

Beautiful wax, and I’ve tried a few. Easy to work with, smooth tops, so far excellent results every time.
