candle center sinks

candle making problem?
when making candles, the center sinks in, what am I doing wrong and how can I correct it
Are the candles colored? Scented? Both? What type wax are you using? What temperture did you pour the wax at?
Fragrances added to candles,and colors, if not added at the correct temperture, and stirred in like crazy, will cause some pretty interesting if not dangerous things to happen.
If you are trying out Soy wax, or one of the natural waxes that are gaining in popularity every day, as the other poster said, thats just the nature of the wax. You can do a add-pour, or get a heat gun, and remelt THE TOP ONLY of the candle…By the way, are these candles in containers? Tapers? Votives? Tealights? Candles might not be rocket science, but they are NOT Romper Room either.
If I can help, please let me know.

PS, in previewing this post before I submitted it, I noticed one HUGE thing I totally left out……It could be nothing more, than the type of wick you are using. And wicking is a whole other ball game of tips and tricks lol Good Luck !
