Please Note: Beeswax, candle moulds and candle wicks are sold separately. The hotplate's maximum temperature of approximately 570°C refers to the heating appliance, not a recommended beeswax temperature.

Safety Information: Always melt beeswax using the intended water bath arrangement and never place wax directly onto the hotplate. Never leave the equipment unattended while heating. Keep the water bath at the appropriate water level and take care when handling hot water, steam, heated metal surfaces and melted beeswax. Always follow the manufacturer's operating instructions.
