The book is very easy to read, very detailed at times even too much, which is good. It guides you from point 'A' to point 'B'. The best part is that it even tells you where you can purchase the products, which makes it a easier to start off. I highly recommend the book.

I've made candles for over 8 years, and my husband and I now sell candlemaking supplies. We are always looking for books that our customers can read to become better educated on the topic at hand. This book does just that, and I highly recommend it!Deborah Ward (Natures Garden Candle Supply)

This book covers several of the modern day subjects that many candlemaking books don't! It touches on Gel wax, Soy wax, and fragrance throw, just to name a few. It is very complete and detailed, as well as inspiring and easy to follow. It also has an extensive chapter on the business side of the craft, giving lots of advice on craft shows and many other ways of making money with your craft, as well as what you need to know for setting up a business. I'd consider this one a must-have for any serious candlemaker's library!Sincerely, Doneen St.John The Candle Cauldron & Bitter Creek Candle Supply, Inc.
