🌿 Why We Don’t Mess with Paraffin (and Why Coconut Soy Is Our Wax of Choice)
Let’s get one thing straight - at Wolf Candle Co, we don’t do paraffin. Ever. Not because it’s trendy to say “clean burning” (though hey, it is), but because what you burn in your den matters. Especially when there are tiny paws, sensitive whiskers, and curious noses roaming around.
So, why did we choose coconut soy wax as the heart of every Wolf candle? Grab a mug of something warm, and let’s break it down.
🕯️ Paraffin? Hard No.
Paraffin wax is a by-product of petroleum (yep, the same stuff that fuels your car). When burned, it can release toxins like toluene and benzene - definitely not the cosy vibes we’re going for. These fumes can irritate sensitive lungs - especially for pets, who are often closer to the source and have a stronger sense of smell than we do.
Cats, in particular, are notorious for their scent sensitivity. So lighting up a paraffin candle next to your sleeping feline? Big yikes.
🥥 Why Coconut Soy?
We wanted something natural, clean, safe, and still dreamy to burn. Coconut soy was the answer. Here’s why we love it:
- Non-toxic & paraffin-free
- Longer, cleaner burns = more scent, less soot
- Vegan and cruelty-free (obviously)
- Sustainable sourcing that’s gentler on the planet
Plus, it holds fragrance like a dream, so your space actually smells like the mood you’re setting.
🐾 Safe for Your Pack
We’re not just lighting candles - we’re creating sanctuaries. And that means making sure our wax, fragrance oils, and essential oils are thoughtfully selected and safe for homes with cats (and their human companions). No sketchy ingredients, no cutting corners.
We test every blend the way it should be tested - with love and a very opinionated cat named Wolf nearby. If he doesn’t approve? It doesn’t make the cut.
💚 A Lighter Footprint, A Brighter Flame
When you support Wolf Candle Co, you're choosing more than a beautiful candle - you’re choosing ethical sourcing, animal safety, and small-batch craftsmanship. You're lighting up your space without lighting up the atmosphere (in a bad way).
And you’re joining a community that believes in better - better ingredients, and better care for our furry friends.
So here’s to slow burns and scents that tell a story.
Wolf Candle Co: for the kind of home that smells good and feels even better. 🕯️🐺✨
