Benefits of the Beeswax Hexagon Candle
Long, Consistent Burn
Beeswax has a naturally high melting point, which allows it to burn longer and more evenly than many other candle types. The Beeswax Hexagon Candle provides 25–30 hours of steady, natural light with minimal leftover wax. This efficiency makes it both practical and cost-effective for everyday use.
Natural Honey Fragrance
As it burns, the candle releases a soft honey aroma that comes directly from the beeswax itself. The fragrance is gentle and natural, never overpowering, creating a cozy and relaxing atmosphere without the need for artificial additives.
Eco-Friendly & Non-Toxic
Made from a renewable and biodegradable resource, beeswax is a safer alternative to paraffin, which is derived from petroleum. Our hexagon candles contain no synthetic dyes, artificial fragrances, or harmful chemicals, ensuring a clean burn that won’t compromise your indoor air quality.
Handcrafted with Care
Each Beeswax Hexagon Candle is hand-poured in small batches on our family farm in Watertown, MN. Using beeswax sourced directly from our hives, we ensure every candle is unique, high-quality, and crafted with a dedication to sustainable beekeeping practices that support healthy pollination and the environment.
Versatile Uses for the Beeswax Hexagon Candle

Its unique geometric shape and warm golden color add a touch of elegance to dining tables, mantels, or bedside stands. Compact yet long-burning, it provides 25–30 hours of clean, steady light that works beautifully for daily use or special occasions.
This candle is ideal for creating a calm atmosphere during relaxation, meditation, or a soothing bath. It also makes a thoughtful gift for friends and family, offering both natural beauty and lasting function. Whether enjoyed as part of your décor or kept on hand for everyday lighting, the Beeswax Hexagon Candle brings warmth and charm to any space.
How to Use the Beeswax Hexagon Candle for Best Results
To enjoy the longest and cleanest burn from your Beeswax Hexagon Candle, follow these simple care tips:
Trim the Candle Wick
Before each lighting, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. This helps maintain a steady flame, prevents smoking, and promotes a cleaner burn. A properly trimmed wick also helps extend the overall burn time.
Burn Free-Standing
Always place your hexagon candle free-standing on a heat-resistant plate, saucer, or similar holder. Do not use inside a tall or tight glass container, as reflected heat can cause uneven melting and reduce the burn time.
Keep Away from Drafts
For the most consistent light, burn your candle in a draft-free area. Moving air can cause flickering and uneven wax melting, which wastes burn time. A stable environment helps ensure an even flame and steady light.

Allow a Full Melt Pool
During the first burn, let the wax melt across the entire top surface before extinguishing the flame. This prevents tunneling and ensures the candle will burn evenly throughout its 25–30 hours of use.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Hexagon Beeswax Pillar Candle
How long does the Beeswax Hexagon Candle burn? 
Each hexagon candle measures 2 inches by 2 inches and provides approximately 25–30 hours of burn time. The exact duration may vary depending on conditions such as drafts, wick trimming, and how long it is burned at one time.
Is the Hexagon beeswax candle scented? 
The candle does not contain added fragrances, but it emits a soft, natural honey aroma from the beeswax itself. This subtle scent is gentle and relaxing, ideal for creating a cozy atmosphere without overpowering your space.
What makes beeswax candles different from paraffin or soy? 
Beeswax burns longer, brighter, and cleaner than paraffin or soy candles. It produces very little soot and gives off a natural honey fragrance without added chemicals. Beeswax also has natural air-purifying properties, making it a healthier option for your home.
Do beeswax candles drip? 
Beeswax has a high melting point, so it typically burns with minimal to no dripping, especially when kept away from drafts. For the best results, burn your candle in a stable environment and trim the wick regularly.
Is the Beeswax Hexagon Candle safe for indoor use? 
Yes, beeswax candles are safe for indoor use when burned properly. Always place the candle on a fire-safe plate or saucer, keep it away from drafts, and never leave it unattended. Its clean burn makes it a healthier choice than paraffin candles for indoor air quality.
How is the beeswax sourced for these candles? 
Our beeswax is ethically harvested directly from hives on our family-owned farm in Minnesota. We practice sustainable beekeeping to ensure the health of our bees and the surrounding ecosystem. By caring for our bees and sourcing wax responsibly, we create high-quality candles that support both environmental health and local biodiversity.
Why is my candle burning unevenly, and how can I fix it? 
If your candle is burning unevenly, it’s likely due to the container or environment in which it’s placed. Our candles are designed to be burned free-standing on a heat-resistant plate, saucer, or similar holder. Tight-fitting jars or glass holders can reflect heat back onto the candle, causing the wax to melt unevenly and potentially affect the burn quality. Additionally, the cotton wick in each candle is sized specifically for the candle’s diameter, helping to optimize the burn time and prevent issues like tunneling, wax spillage, or wick drowning. For optimal performance, ensure your candle is placed in a draft-free area. Drafts can disrupt the flame, causing uneven melting and wasting wax. Always ensure the candle has space to burn freely and in a stable, draft-free environment for the best results.
The candles I received are lovely, especially the Trees and Snowflakes candle. It’s almost too pretty to burn!
I noted the warning on the website about possible shipment delays—these folks are beekeepers, not a fulfillment house!—but to the contrary, my candles arrived within the week, and came with a sweet little honey sample with beautiful packaging! I will definitely be ordering from Ames Farms again!
