The rubber will stick only to itself so when it is sliced in half to open the mold, the corn pops right out and leaves a 'corn' impression. That mold is then fitted with a precut wick with a diameter that is the correct size for the dimension of the candle. One end of the wick is placed between the two halves of the mold then pulled up through the center and wrapped around a bar at the other end to hold it in place. The two halves of the mold are held together with rubber bands. Wax is poured into the mold, allowed to set up, the rubber bands are removed and a candle emerges.
Every candle wick has to have a final coat of wax.
They also make a heart shaped candle in three different colored layers which emits a different scent from each layer. That candle and their two potpourri candles are their best sellers. I asked the Banks what their worst 'bomb' was. They both agreed it was the candles they made the first year, before their experience was in place. But all was not lost, the candles that did not sell, could be melted down again, more scent added and made into an entirely new candle.
