Hi all!
I’m new to candle making. At least half of my 15-candle batch (mould makes 15 small candles) don’t look good and presentable. I let them cool for at least 15 hours for sure before taking them out of the mould.
I’m melting my wax to no more than 62 degees, letting it cool down to 57 then added fragrance and mixing for a good minute or 2 so my pouring temperature is around 55-56.
I’m mixing 13g of fragrance into 625g soywax.

Any idea what might be the problem please? I’m doing these as our wedding favours and want them to look presentable!

Hiya Lara.
You may find that your wax may be too soft to make bubble candles, unfortunately. Check with the manufacturer and they might be able to help you.
Also double check your pouring temp and ratio for your fragrance against the manufactures recommendations

Best of luck
