    Hmm, I would assume most candles are vegan being made of either paraffin or soy wax. Bees wax tends to be more expensive since it takes a long time for bees to make wax. The flame from bees wax is also smaller and less bright. Am I wrong about this assumption?

      I don’t think you are. I’m pretty sure the default would be a cheaper alternative to beeswax.

      I don’t guess they don’t have to list the ingredients though, so it would be hard to know it was vegan.
