How is soy different than paraffin?
Paraffin Wax is derived from fossil fuels found deep within the earth. After refining processes take place, the bi-product you will have is paraffin wax. Although paraffin wax has been commonly used in candles, many consumers are looking for vegetable based alternatives. Soy Wax comes from Soy Beans grown by farmers both in the USA and around the world. Soy Wax tends to have a more opaque appearance than paraffin, allowing some colors to appear more bold and vibrant.
