Cat's Paw Candle

This candle is different from others with a traditional wick.

The main difference is the cat's paw wick burns the wick and the wax.

Other candles will burn the wick and leave a pile of wax left over.

This candle reduces waste by burning the refuse.

The cat's paw wick is easily tied around a ring, placed into a container of melted wax, and once cooled and solidified, the candle is ready to light.

Watch the flame and see the wax disappear as fuel. There is no wax left over.

Relax with a tea light.
