Too much white dye can affect wick performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen should I add the dye flakes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Add them when wax is fully melted and hot enough for the flakes to dissolve, usually around 176–185°F. Stir until fully blended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this with soy wax?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Yes, but test first. Soy wax may create a softer creamy white or pastel result rather than a sharp bright white.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this with beeswax?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Yes, but beeswax has a natural yellow tone. White dye may lighten it to ivory, but it may not turn it pure white.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this with gel wax?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Do not use it in gel wax unless the dye is specifically confirmed gel-safe. Gel wax requires compatible dyes and additives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this to make pastel colors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Yes. Add white dye to soften stronger candle dye colors and create pastel shades. Test small batches first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy are there white specks in my candle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        The flakes may not have fully dissolved. Add dye at a higher wax temperature and stir longer before pouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan white dye affect the wick?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Yes, if overused. Any dye can affect burn behavior. Always burn test after changing dye amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this beginner-friendly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        Yes, but use a small amount first. White dye is easy to overuse, and the final color can change after the candle cools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bloombay","offers":[{"title":"1 oz","offer_id":49140135264564,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 oz","offer_id":49140135297332,"sku":null,"price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 oz","offer_id":49140135330100,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 oz","offer_id":49140135362868,"sku":null,"price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb","offer_id":49140136345908,"sku":null,"price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/5416\/5044\/files\/whitedyeflake1.png?v=1780023560","url":"https:\/\/www.bloombayshop.com\/products\/white-candle-dye-flakes","provider":"Bloombay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
