text: Hi everyone. I’ve recently started out making candles and I could really use your insight please:
  I’ve followed the instructions on Candle shack however, I can’t seem to get the candle to burn evenly and I can’t get a good hot throw. I’m using RCX wax, 20 CL tin containers (7 and 8 diameters) and CL 12 and CL 14 wicks. The fragrance oils are Awakening and Starry night. have heated the wax to the right temp, added fragrances and poured accordingly. I used 180 grams of wax plus 18 grams of fragrance oil as I have found this fills my containers exactly. I let them cure for a week and use a digital thermometer.
  I know there’s frosting, I don’t mind that. However, I noticed the wax cracks, you can see this in the 1st image. Is this normal and if not how can I avoid it? Do I need to wick up, e.g. CL16? Any suggestions for a better hot throw? Please & Thank you.
