It actually works like a little pump. The heat from the flame melts the wax, and the wick draws up that liquid fuel through capillary action. If your wick is too thin, the pump isn\u2019t powerful enough. The candle will then burn a narrow tunnel straight down, and the edges won\u2019t melt. The flame will eventually be smothered by its own wax because it isn\u2019t getting enough oxygen.     <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you choose a wick that\u2019s too thick, the pump will work too hard. The flame will get too high, start to flicker, and produce black smoke. In addition, this can cause the glass to become dangerously hot. The goal is a stable flame and a molten pool that reaches the rim of your glass after about 3 to 4 hours of burning.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Measure the diameter of your pot or mold<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It all starts with the size. Grab your measuring tape or caliper. For container candles, always measure the inner diameter of the glass, not the outside. Up to a diameter of about 7.5 cm, a single wick is usually sufficient. This is the standard size for most whiskey glasses and jam jars.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is your container wider than 8 or 9 cm? If so, it will be difficult for a single wick to create a full melt pool without flickering. In that case, you\u2019ll likely need two or even three wicks. If you opt for double-wicking, divide the diameter by two to find the correct size. A 10-cm jar therefore needs two wicks, each suitable for a diameter of 5 cm. In our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/kaarsen-maken\/hoe-voorkom-je-een-off-center-kaarslont\/\">how to prevent an off-center candle wick<\/a>, you can read how to distribute these wicks perfectly throughout the jar.     <\/p>\n<div class=\"woocommerce columns-3 \"><ul class=\"products columns-3\">\n<li class=\"product type-product post-153807 status-publish first instock product_cat-candle-making product_cat-candles-wick product_cat-candles-wick-on-roll has-post-thumbnail taxable shipping-taxable purchasable product-type-variable has-default-attributes\">\n\t<div class=\"commercekit-wishlist mini\" data-product-id=\"151791\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"commercekit-save-wishlist\" data-product-id=\"151791\" data-type=\"list\" title=\"Wishlist\" aria-label=\"Wishlist\"><em class=\"cg-wishlist\"><\/em><span><\/span><\/a><\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candle-making\/candle-light-holder\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><div class=\"woocommerce-image__wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candle-making\/candle-light-holder\/\" title=\"Candle Wick Holder\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel-container\"><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-image-wrapper\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/547854260_max-300x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"Candle Wick Holder\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 147px, \" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/547854757_max-300x360.jpg\" class=\"gallery-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 147px, \" \/>\t\t\t\n\t<\/div><\/div><\/a><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel--pagination\">\n      \t\t\t<span class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel--dot active\"><\/span>\n      \t\t\t<span class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel--dot\"><\/span>\n    \t\t<\/div><\/div><div class=\"woocommerce-card__header\">\t\t\t\t<div class=\"woocommerce-loop-product__title\"><a tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candle-making\/candle-light-holder\/\" aria-label=\"Candle Wick Holder\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\">Candle Wick Holder<\/a><\/div><div class=\"my-price\"><span class=\"wts-price-container\"><span class=\"wts-price-wrapper\"><span class=\"wts-price-incl wts-active\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>1.25<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><span class=\"wts-price-excl wts-inactive\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>1.03<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><\/span> <span aria-hidden=\"true\">&ndash;<\/span> <span class=\"wts-price-wrapper\"><span class=\"wts-price-incl wts-active\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>34.95<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><span class=\"wts-price-excl wts-inactive\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>28.88<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Price range: &euro;1.25&euro;1.03 through &euro;34.95&euro;28.88<\/span> <small class=\"woocommerce-price-suffix\">incl.

The viscosity of the melted wax determines how hard the wick has to work. <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/handmade\/candle-making\/wax-candles\/soy-wax\/\">Soy wax<\/a>: Plant-based waxes become thicker when they melt. You\u2019ll need a wick that burns at a slightly higher temperature, such as the TCR series or the Eco series. The TCR is a flat-braided cotton wick with a paper core that is known for its excellent burning performance in soy wax.  <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/handmade\/candle-making\/wax-candles\/paraffin-wax\/\">Paraffin<\/a>: This material burns more easily. A wick that burns too hot will immediately produce soot. The Stabilo (CD) series is often the best choice for a steady flame.  <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/handmade\/candle-making\/wax-candles\/beeswax\/\">Beeswax<\/a>: This wax has a high melting point and is very viscous. A standard cotton wick often gets submerged in it. You\u2019ll need a thick, round wick that has been specially treated for beeswax.  <\/li>\n<li>Wooden wicks: These produce that familiar, cozy crackling sound. They work with almost any type of wax, but you need to pay close attention to the correct width. If a wooden wick keeps going out, it\u2019s probably too narrow for the diameter of your jar.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"woocommerce columns-3 \"><ul class=\"products columns-3\">\n<li class=\"product type-product post-348845 status-publish first instock product_cat-candle-making product_cat-candles-wick product_cat-pre-cut-wick has-post-thumbnail taxable shipping-taxable purchasable product-type-variable has-default-attributes\">\n\t<div class=\"commercekit-wishlist mini\" data-product-id=\"348673\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"commercekit-save-wishlist\" data-product-id=\"348673\" data-type=\"list\" title=\"Wishlist\" aria-label=\"Wishlist\"><em class=\"cg-wishlist\"><\/em><span><\/span><\/a><\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/pre-cut-wick\/stabilo-fuses\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><div class=\"woocommerce-image__wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/pre-cut-wick\/stabilo-fuses\/\" title=\"Stabilo Candle Wicks\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel-container\"><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Candle-Wicks-300x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"Stabilo Candle Wicks\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 147px, \" \/>\t\t\t\n\t<\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div><div class=\"woocommerce-card__header\">\t\t\t\t<div class=\"woocommerce-loop-product__title\"><a tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/pre-cut-wick\/stabilo-fuses\/\" aria-label=\"Stabilo Candle Wicks\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\">Stabilo Candle Wicks<\/a><\/div><div class=\"my-price\"><span class=\"wts-price-container\"><span class=\"wts-price-wrapper\"><span class=\"wts-price-incl wts-active\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>1.95<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><span class=\"wts-price-excl wts-inactive\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>1.61<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><\/span> <span aria-hidden=\"true\">&ndash;<\/span> <span class=\"wts-price-wrapper\"><span class=\"wts-price-incl wts-active\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>68.95<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><span class=\"wts-price-excl wts-inactive\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>56.98<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><\/span><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Price range: &euro;1.95&euro;1.61 through &euro;68.95&euro;56.98<\/span> <small class=\"woocommerce-price-suffix\">incl.

The golden rule is the burn test. Make your candle and let it cure for at least 48 hours. With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/handmade\/candle-making\/wax-candles\/soy-wax\/\">soy wax<\/a>, this can even take one to two weeks for the best results.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Light the candle and let it burn until the entire surface has melted. Allow about 1 hour per 2.5 cm of diameter. Take a close look at the flame. Is it steady? Is it smoking? Is the pool of melted wax about 1 cm deep? Is there still a thick ring of hard wax clinging to the glass after 4 hours of burning? If so, you\u2019re experiencing tunneling, and your wick is likely too small. You can read more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/candle-making\/fix-candle-tunneling\/\">how to fix candle tunneling<\/a> in our detailed blog post.        <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, is a black carbon ball (a \u201cmushroom\u201d) forming at the end of your wick? This often means that the wick is too long or that too much Fragrance oil has been used. Always trim your wick to 5 mm before use. A good pair of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/candle-wick-trimmer-candle-wick-scissors\/\">candle wick scissors<\/a> will help you do this precisely without contaminating the wax.   <\/p>\n<div class=\"woocommerce columns-3 \"><ul class=\"products columns-3\">\n<li class=\"product type-product post-151117 status-publish first instock product_cat-candle-making product_cat-candles-wick has-post-thumbnail taxable shipping-taxable purchasable product-type-simple\">\n\t<div class=\"commercekit-wishlist mini\" data-product-id=\"149882\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"commercekit-save-wishlist\" data-product-id=\"149882\" data-type=\"list\" title=\"Wishlist\" aria-label=\"Wishlist\"><em class=\"cg-wishlist\"><\/em><span><\/span><\/a><\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/candle-wick-trimmer-candle-wick-scissors\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><div class=\"woocommerce-image__wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/candle-wick-trimmer-candle-wick-scissors\/\" title=\"Candle Wick Trimmer &#8211; Candle Wick Scissors\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel-container\"><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-image-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/trimmer-300x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"Candle Wick Trimmer - Candle Wick Scissors\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 147px, \" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/trimmer3-300x360.jpg\" class=\"gallery-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 147px, \" \/>\t\t\t\n\t<\/div><\/div><\/a><div class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel--pagination\">\n      \t\t\t<span class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel--dot active\"><\/span>\n      \t\t\t<span class=\"shoptimizer-plp-carousel--dot\"><\/span>\n    \t\t<\/div><\/div><div class=\"woocommerce-card__header\">\t\t\t\t<div class=\"woocommerce-loop-product__title\"><a tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/buy\/candles-wick\/candle-wick-trimmer-candle-wick-scissors\/\" aria-label=\"Candle Wick Trimmer &#8211; Candle Wick Scissors\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\">Candle Wick Trimmer &#8211; Candle Wick Scissors<\/a><\/div><div class=\"my-price\"><span class=\"wts-price-container\"><span class=\"wts-price-wrapper\"><span class=\"wts-price-incl wts-active\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>7.95<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><span class=\"wts-price-excl wts-inactive\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span>6.57<\/bdi><\/span><\/span><\/span> <small class=\"woocommerce-price-suffix\">incl.

Because a pillar candle doesn\u2019t have glass to retain the heat, you often need a slightly thicker wick than you would for a container of the same diameter. But be careful: if the wick is too large for a pillar candle, the sides will melt through too quickly and the liquid wax will leak onto the table.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When making a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/candle-making\/beeswax-candle-making\/\">beeswax candle<\/a> in a mold, you need to pay extra attention to the melting point. You can find more information about wick length for different candle shapes on our page about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/candle-making\/candle-wick-length\/\">candle wick length<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finding the right combination of wick, wax, and diameter is a process of trial and error.
