9 June 2026These easy coffee candles fill your home with a warm, comforting coffee aroma, perfect for cosy winter evenings and load-shedding. A simple recipe from The Soap Barn using a few candle making supplies.
What you will need
- 1kg candle wax
- Nylon core wick
- Coffee fragrance (or chocolate fragrance, or both)
- A heat-safe glass or mug
All available from our candle making supplies range.
Method
- Melt your wax gently in a pot on the stove. When melted, add your fragrance oil.
- Position your wick in the container and pour in the melted wax right to the top.
- Leave to set. It will set with a small hole in the middle, this is normal, as wax shrinks as it sets.
- Melt your leftover wax and top up the hole. Leave to cool and set completely.
