Candles
that were manufactured by APEX Enterprises

Many beekeepers make candles and I am no exception. I enjoy the pleasant light that, particularly, beeswax candles produce. The fragrance of a burning beeswax candle is pleasing without being overpowering.

All the candles that I make myself are made from pure beeswax except some of those in the 'Other Candles' and 'Special Candles' groups.

When time permits a special 'candle index' page will be generated to bring together the multitude of pages on this beekeeping website that deal with... Candles, wax processing, candle moulds, wick and wick design, decoration of candles, packaging and marketing, showing candles and so on.

The beeswax is rendered from the combs and cappings of the bees that I keep (kept) myself... See the pages on Wax Melting and Wax Filtration for how this is done.

The wick for use in beeswax candles is also discussed on the Wick Design & Use page, and a list of types and sizes of wick is given on the Wick page.
