Where do you purchase the funnel and silicon tea light moulds from please? Has the funnel got a special name. I enjoyed your tutorial but I would like to have seen a closer look at the process. Camera was a little far away. It was great though. Thank you.

@@WildHarvestCandleCompany Thank you. I'm frustrated, I thought I did everything just right and got a ridiculous amount of tunneling. My pillar candle looks lame :(

@@diegooland1261 the video was for tealight candles. Pillar candles are a bit different and also depend on the type of mold you’re using. Silicone or metal? I pour a different temperature for each mold type. For silicone molds I pour hotter and for metal molds I pour at around 155.

@@WildHarvestCandleCompany We're using silicone molds, about 3.5 x 2 inches. It's still quite cool where I live, about 70 degrees today. Does the ambient temp effect drying/tunneling? It looked so good right after the pour but as it began to cure it just tunneled. We're also concerned about the wax we have. We just went on amazon and got beeswax. I'm guessing like everything else, there is a difference.
