Stair acid also helps to increase the amount of light that moves through the wax. I use this product at a particular ratio that works well for my candles. This is a great resource for candlemakers, whether you are experienced or just starting out in the field. Review: Great all-purpose product - It's the main ingredient in Fry-Away, so I use it after cooking with oil or have leftover fat from baking or cooking. It does the trick and I am quite satisfied with the results. Plus, when you mix in baking soda, it erupts like elephant toothpaste. Pretty cool science experiment! ## Features - CANDLE WAX ADDITIVE – Stearic acid helps modify compatible candle wax formulations to create firmer candles for pillar, votive and molded candle projects. - HELPS HARDEN WAX – Add stearic acid to compatible wax blends to increase hardness and raise the melt point, helping create candles with a firmer finished structure. - IMPROVES WAX OPACITY – Stearic acid can increase opacity in compatible candle wax formulations, making it useful for creating candles with a more solid, opaque appearance. - 1 LB SUPPLY FOR DIY PROJECTS – A convenient 1 lb quantity for candle making and other formulations, including soap, lotion and cosmetic projects where stearic acid is an appropriate ingredient. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09S1C6VBR | | Additional Features | Triple Pressed Stearic Acid | | Best Sellers Rank | #22,879 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #81 in Candle Making Wax | | Brand | Direct Candle Supply | | Brand Name | Direct Candle Supply | | Candle Type | Container Candle | | Color | White | | Container Material | Plastic | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 506 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00850030718532 | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Dimensions W x H | 8"W x 10"H | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Direct Candle Supply | | Manufacturer Part Number | SA | | Material Type | Wax | | Model Number | SA | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | general home decor | | Product Dimensions | 8"W x 10"H | | Product Style | Minimalist | | Scent | Unscented | | Scent Name | Unscented | | Size | 1 lb | | Unit Count | 16 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Direct Candle Supply - **Color:** White - **Container Material:** Plastic - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Indoor - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Material:** Wax - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Occasion:** general home decor - **Product Dimensions:** 8"W x 10"H - **Scent:** Unscented ## Images ![Stearic Acid for Candle Making, 1 lb Wax Additive and Hardener | Additive that helps harden candle wax, raise melt point and improve opacity in pillar, votive and molded candles. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718Hz8vOPbL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Necessary tool for making great candles *by J***T on January 7, 2026* I use stearic acid to increase the stiffness of my wax for use in pillars and in molds.
