This cactus candle mold is probably the easiest candle mold to start with if you’re a beginner. With a flexible mold like this one, you don’t have to worry about the candle getting stuck during the de-molding process. This is also a very small mold so you can test out your candlemaking skills without using up a lot of wax. Plus, they’re super cute!
I filmed a YouTube video of this candlemaking project. If you want to make these cute cactus candles with me, you can watch here:
Here is everything I used to make this cactus candle:
- This is the cactus candle mold I used.
- I used a blend of soy wax and beeswax.
- I always use stearic acid to improve the burn time, harden the candle, and make the color more opaque.
- You can use wax dye chips or liquid candle dye.
- I’d recommend size #6/0 candle wick for this candle mold.
