unique way. We recommend placing your candle on a plate with a minimum diameter
of 10 inches (25 cm) to contain the wax as it melts.

that are different from traditional candles. During the burning process they
may release large amounts of liquid wax. care should be taken to put the candle
on a plate or other contain to eliminate the risk of wax overflow.
