What Others Say
A thick book with very little information
I picked this up a few years ago at a discount bookshop and have kept it around though I'm not certain why. There are lovely full-color photos, but most of the book is common sense candlemaking advice which you might find online for free. To anyone that's made candles before, the book offers little help.

Candlemaking for fun & profit
Candlemaking for Fun & Profit is vague at best. There is not alot of specific info on making candles or running a business. This is an OK book if you find it used and cheap, but your money is better spent on a different book if you want specific technical info on how to make candles.
Valuable Information!!
Candlemaking for Fun & Profit explains so much. Just what I will need to get my candle business off the ground! I highly recommend Candlemaking for Fun & Profit!
