Trim the wick

We recommend trimming your candle’s wick to approximately ¼” prior to re-lighting. Trim only as much as is necessary in order to produce the ideal flame size of approximately one inch in height. If the wick become too long, it may resulting too large of a flame. Keep the wick centered; If the wick moves towards the side during burning, simply nudge it back to the center while the wax is soft or liquid.  Always allow candle to burn until there is a complete melt pool, this will eliminate tunnel effects.
