Layered candle assembly and methods of forming thereof
A method of forming a layered candle assembly includes positioning a candle core in a form. A layer of powdered wax is loaded into the form. The powdered wax layer has an outer region and an inner region. Mechanical force is applied to compress the outer region of the powdered wax layer and form an upper interface surface that is substantially non-horizontal. The outer perimeter of the interface surface is visible to an observer in the finished candle assembly. A liquefied fuel substance is poured over the top of the powdered wax layer to form a layer of solid wax. A wick may be added to at a desirable stage in the method of forming the layered candle assembly. The powdered wax and solid wax layers may each have a color or a combination of colors and/or a scent component or a combination of scent components.
1. A layered candle assembly, the layered candle assembly comprising:
a form comprising at least one sidewall;
at least one candle core positioned in the form such that the at least one candle core is spaced apart from the at least one sidewall of the form to create a space therebetween;
at least one wick;
at least one layer of powdered wax positioned between the at least one candle core and the at least one sidewall and occupying the space therebetween, the at least one layer of powdered wax comprising an outer region and an inner region, the outer region being positioned adjacent to the at least one sidewall and the inner region being positioned adjacent to and radially inward from the outer region, the outer region of the at least one layer of powdered wax being compressed more than the inner region of the at least one layer of powdered wax; and
at least one layer of solid wax positioned over the at least one layer of powdered wax.
2. The layered candle assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one candle core comprises paraffin wax, triglyceride wax such as vegetable wax, tallow, or blends thereof.
3. The layered candle assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one candle core comprises at least one channel with the at least one wick threaded through the at least one channel.
4. The layered candle assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one layer of powdered wax has a first color and a first scent component and the at least one layer of solid wax has a second color that is different from the first color and a second scent component that is different from the first scent component.
