Wick: Candle Maker's Calc

The cited candle-maker's calculator: wax weight, a safe fragrance load with the IFRA cap, wick size, and your true cost per candle. Free, 48h Pro trial.

Wick is the candle-maker's calculator — every number you need to pour a candle, cited and in one place, instead of a stack of web pages.

Enter your vessel and wax, and Wick gives you: • WAX NEEDED — by vessel volume and container count (volume × the wax's specific gravity). • FRAGRANCE LOAD — the oil weight for your target %, with a safety guardrail: it warns when you exceed your wax's max or your fragrance's IFRA limit (oil bleed and wick-choke are real fire risks). • WICK SIZE — a starting-point ECO/CD recommendation by container diameter, bumped up for a heavy load or dark dye. • ADD / POUR TEMPS and CURE TIME for your wax. • COST & PRICING — your true cost per candle and your margin, for makers who sell.

WHY WICK Every number traces to a named source — CandleScience and The Flaming Candle wick guides, IFRA Category 12 limits, and wax-manufacturer spec sheets. No guesswork, no "trust our formula."

Wick's numbers are a cited starting point. Candle making involves open flame and hot wax — always burn-test your own candle for safety.
