Application
To achieve a nicer flame and a more even burning of the wooden wicks, you can soak the wooden wicks in candle wax, scented oil or cooking oil. Liquid coconut oil, olive oil or sunflower oil are suitable cooking oils. In our tests, soaking in olive oil - for at least 24 hours - produced the best results. We strongly advise against soaking the wooden wicks in lamp oil, as this can pose a great danger to children and animals. At this point: use only at your own risk!
