Coy About Soy? Not Tamar Valley Candles

GUNNISLAKE, U.K. - March 20, 2013 - PRLog -- There's a new candle on the block and the people at Tamar Valley Candles are eager to tell us why we should be thinking about soy candles to fragrance our homes.

Soy wax is 100% vegetable based, and the soy wax used at Tamar Valley Candles has no additional additives. It's a non-toxic wax, ideal should you have children around the house that might consider a brightly coloured candle something edible, or should you wish to reuse your candle-containers once the candle has burned down.

Soy wax has a more generous scent-throw than an equivalent paraffin candle and will burn for slightly longer, therefore it offers better value for money.

Pippa at Tamar Valley Candles tells us more, "Soy candles are fantastic candles to burn. They have a clean creamy appearance with few if any imperfections making them ideal for glass containers and a soy candle doesn't give off as much soot as its paraffin cousin."

Their website gives a clear indication as to why soy candles should be on our shopping lists:

10 Great Reasons Why We Love Soy Wax (and why you should too):
