Tunneling occurs for two reasons. One, the candle wasn't lit long enough during the first burn, leaving wax along the sides of the container. Two, the candle was improperly constructed with a weak wick. Bia Candle Co tests and retests its candles to ensure optimal wicking. All you have to do is let your candle burn for about 3 hours during the initial burn. This will optimize the burn and maximize the lifespan of our handcrafted candles.
Let Bia Candle Co illuminate your space with captivating scents and create lasting memories through the art of proper candle burning.
]]>To meet this demand, thousands of candle brands vie for customer loyalty. The US has every type of candle imaginable. How do you choose your candle?
Bia started making candles in Brazil for the sole reason that quality scented candles didn't exist. Cultural differences. No demand, no supply.
Back in the USA, Bia compared her product to existing brands and concluded her product would compete with the best brands at a lower price point. How?...
A note on packaging. It's expensive. Some consumers don't realize that packaging is many times more expensive than the actual product they are buying. Packaging most of the time translates to trash. Most boxes can't be reused. Their sole purpose it to attract the consumers attention, transport from store to home, then trash, which means larger landfills, more pollution and destruction of nature. Bia candle co avoids boxes for these reasons. Our candles are wrapped with recycled and recyclable paper and a ribbon you can reuse.
When you purchase a bia candle, you're paying for a quality candle that will scent your home. Perfume-inspired aromas are used in high concentrations. Natural soy wax blend and wicks provide a CLEAN, slow burn. No additives. No soot. No drowning wicks. Quality.

I am neither religious or political. I do believe we are multi-sensory and we are a soul with teachers, masters, spirits, guides, guardian angel, God (call it what you prefer) that guide us. I believe we are accompanied, we are guided, we have help. All you have to do is ASK. During uncertain times, when in doubt or despair, when you are lost and have no idea which way to go, ASK. Ask for guidance. Ask for your Higher Power to enlighten your path. To guide you. To help you. ASK and TRUST you will get answer. And you will.
Light a candle. Breathe deep. Believe in Light. Pray. Stay safe.

Pro Tip: To extinguish the candle, I recommend 'dipping' the wick into the melt pool with a toothpick, chopstick, used matchstick, etc. instead of blowing out the flame, which will prevent aftersmoke. Recenter the wick after dipping.
Happy lighting!
