If you're diving into the world of candle crafting, choosing the right moulds for making candles is a critical step in achieving quality results. Whether you're a hobbyist or producing in bulk, your choice of moulds can significantly affect the finish, durability, and design of your candles.

Types of Candle Moulds

Silicone Moulds: Flexible, easy to demould, and great for detailed designs. Ideal for both soy and beeswax candles.
Metal Moulds: Best for pillar candles and offer excellent heat resistance and shape stability.

Plastic Moulds: Affordable and lightweight, but may not suit high-temperature waxes.

What to Look For

Heat Tolerance: Always check the mould’s resistance to high temperatures.
Ease of Cleaning: Reusable moulds should be easy to maintain for long-term use.
Finish Quality: High-quality moulds produce smoother, more professional-looking candles.

Pro Tip for Better Results

Use a quality wick centering tool and allow proper cooling time to avoid surface imperfections. A good candle making kit often comes with essential tools to enhance your moulding process.
