You may have come across paraffin in most stores as they have traditionally been most commonly used in candle-making. Paraffin has been always preferred because of its versatility, and so, it can be molded into any shape, to make anything you desire.

It may be 100% pure soybean oil or blended with other vegetable oils. It is as versatile as paraffin and can easily replace it in making various kinds of candles.
