10″ 12″ Twisted Taper Candles Set of 4

Taper candles are long, slender candles that narrow toward the top, designed to fit into candle holders. They’re commonly used for dining, décor, religious ceremonies, and special events like weddings.

They typically range from 6 to 18 inches in length, with diameters of ½ inch to 1 inch. The most common dining size is 10–12 inches.

They’re crafted from paraffin wax, beeswax, soy wax, or blends. Beeswax and soy are eco-friendly options, while dripless versions (with added stearin) minimize wax drips.

Burn time depends on size and material. A 12-inch taper burns 4–8 hours. Thinner candles burn faster, while beeswax may last longer.

Always keep them away from flammable materials, trim wicks to ¼ inch, and never leave burning candles unattended. Use sturdy holders to prevent tipping.

Yes! They come in various colors, heights, and finishes (e.g., metallic, spiral designs) to match themes. Custom engraving or scents may also be available.

Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight to prevent warping or discoloration. Lay flat or stand upright in a holder to maintain shape.

Rotate the candle periodically if it bends or drips on one side. Ensure the wick is centered and the holder is stable.
