i recently bought a candle making kit so thought this book would complement it nicely - boy was I surprised!!! It gave me many more ideas than i had thought of and most are very simple. Now everyone is getting candles for christmas. I was so pleased i have now started buying ingredients for the soap making chapters of this book. I would advise though that you purchase a thermometer appropriate for candlemaking - it can make all the difference between a great candle and an ok candle. A 5* book for me.

Brilliant book- explains the trade lingo and goes into depth about techniques and materials. Clear and concise. The book even gives tips how to go around setting up your own business in the candle and soap making industry. Smashing book for the beginner or pro! 5 whole stars!!

Very disappointing.
Most of the useful information in this book could fit on a postcard, and still leave enough space to write a nice paragraph about your holiday. Read more

Worse buy ever!!!
The book seems to contain some useful information about candle and soap making, but it is presented in an extremely dull fashion with so much I and I's and lots of I's. Read more

Waffles a lot
The candle making directions are probably valid but they are well hidden beneath great piles of waffle and repetition. Read more

Ok for candles, not for soap-making
If you're interested in a beginner's book for candle-making, this may be worth a look. But the soap-making section is awful. Read more
