Description
In this vegetable wax candle, we depict the marriage between two famous local products: the melon and the Muscat. We were inspired by the sweet, juicy, sun-drenched Melon de Cavaillon (which is waiting for its IGP label) and the Muscat de Beaumes de Venise, with its sweet character, balancing the association. It is said that this recipe originated on the tables of the Popes of Avignon over 600 years ago.
How to use
Before lighting the candle :
- Cut the wick to a height of 0.5 to 1 cm from the surface of the wax.
- Remove any foreign matter from the wax and the wick.
- Place the candle on a stable surface, protected from heat and draughts. Otherwise it will not melt evenly.
When the candle is lit :
- Do not extinguish the candle until the entire wax surface has melted. Otherwise the candle will form a pit and burn unevenly.
- Do not move the lit candle
- Do not leave it unattended or within the reach of children or pets.
To extinguish the candle :
- You can blow out the candle gently, or you can use a snuffer.
- Do not move the candle until the wax has set again.
- To prepare for the next use of the candle, use pliers to dip the wick into the wax and then straighten it. Do not hesitate to re-centre the wick while the wax is still melting.
