Abstract: An application for a method of making a candle includes providing a candle core and adding a base layer of wax to the candle core. Next, an image area is cut out of the base layer large enough to contain an image and the base layer is peeled away from the candle core in the image area. An adhesion layer of wax is added to the candle core. An image is installed in the image area. A clear layer of wax is added to the candle core, also covering the image. An outer layer of wax is added to the candle core, also covering the image area then the image area is cut out of the outer layer and the outer layer is peeled away from the candle core in the image area.

Abstract: A wax core is dipped multiple times in liquid clear wax and water sequentially. Thereafter, the candle is dipped multiple times in a liquid pigmented wax to form a first pigmented layer. When the desired shade is achieved, one or more layers of clear wax is added. The cooled pigmented wax layer with a clear layer on top is then dipped in water multiple times to produce a primed surface layer at ±1 degree ambient. The candle is now rubbed to assist the peeling of any layer over the primed surface. Multiple layers of clear wax are then added followed by a second pigmented wax. The process is repeated for as many pigmented wax layers as desired. The final candle has a glaze outer layer applied by dipping.
