The Advantages of All-Natural Soy in our Votivo Candles

Did you know that soybean wax is biodegradable? Candles made from soy wax support America's farmers. Soybean wax is safe, non-toxic and replaces paraffin which is derived from petroleum. Soy wax candles burn cleaner, are derived from the soy bean, and are a renewable energy source. They contain no petrol soot emissions. Soybean wax also burns longer than paraffin..so you get more for your money!

One last very important point is that Votivo Candles will make any mom happy on Mother's Day!
