Candelilla wax is a vegan alternative to beeswax. It's a vegetable wax that is created from the Candelilla plant which is native to Mexico.
Candelilla wax is a golden wax. It's natural, cosmetic grade, and comes in pellet form. This makes it easy to measure and to melt.
Although Candelilla wax is a vegan alternative to beeswax, it is a firmer, harder wax so when substituting in formulas, it's not as simple as swapping beeswax for Candellia wax. We suggest you use 50% of the amount. So if a recipe calls for 100g beeswax, try using 50g Candellia and do some experimenting to achieve your desired texture or consistency.
