Natural Beeswax Candles – Hand-poured in Konstanz on Lake Constance
Hand-poured. 100% pure beeswax. Free from artificial fragrances.
Why are Beeswax Candles Better Than Scented Candles?
- 100% Natural: Made without additives or artificial fragrances, apidae candles offer a pure, natural alternative to conventional scented candles.
- Pure Light and Air: Enjoy the warm, glowing light of beeswax in your home without compromising the air you breathe. The natural scent creates a subtly pleasant atmosphere.
- Freshness Like After a Thunderstorm: Have you ever noticed how clean and fresh the air smells after a thunderstorm? Lightning produces negative ions. Burning a beeswax candle can also release negative ions that bind dust, odors, and other particles in the air, making them heavier so they settle to the ground.
- Healthier Than Paraffin: Paraffin candles, a byproduct of the petroleum industry, can release soot and fumes while burning, which can pollute indoor air far more than natural beeswax candles.
- Tradition Meets Modern Design: apidae candles combine the traditional art of beeswax candle making with contemporary design. Each candle is hand-poured from 100% pure beeswax, without added fragrances or dyes. The result is a clean-burning candle with a subtle, natural honey scent.
The Magic of Beeswax
Bees collect nectar and pollen to produce honey. As they digest the honey, the wax glands on the underside of their abdomen transform it into tiny flakes, which later become wax.
This natural process gives my candles not only their subtle honey scent but also the characteristic golden-yellow color, derived from the nectar and pollen of the flowers the bees have gathered. When burned, they emit warm, soothing light, creating a pleasant, natural atmosphere—completely free of additives or artificial fragrances.
