Bio-D’s first ever, naturally scented candle
Introducing Bio-D's first ever, naturally scented, Yorkshire Rhubarb Soya Wax Candle. Handcrafted in Yorkshire, this eco friendly candle is made from sustainable soya wax and features the sweet, tangy scent of Yorkshire Rhubarb. The wick is the heart of the candle. It determines flame stability, soot production, and overall burning efficiency. Our wicks are made from pure cotton coated in vegetable wax, ensuring a clean and natural burn, making it a more eco-friendly choice. High-quality wicks, like the ones selected for Bio-D candles, minimise unburnt carbon particles, ensuring a cleaner burn.
When a candle is lit, the heat melts the wax. The wick absorbs the liquid wax through capillary motion, transporting it to the flame, where it vaporises and combusts to create light and heat. Our wicks are designed to be self-trimming, meaning they naturally maintain the optimal length as they burn. This reduces the need for frequent maintenance and helps ensure a steady flame, less smoke, and a cleaner candle experience. Perfect for creating a cosy, natural ambiance in your home, it's vegan, cruelty free and free from synthetic fragrances. Enjoy a clean, long lasting burn while supporting British craftsmanship and sustainability with every use.
Why are your candles made from soy?
Most conventional candles are petroleum-based, which can release toxic chemicals like benzene and toluene when burned. These carcinogens have been linked to respiratory issues, asthma, and even lung diseases such as cancer. Our soy candles are a natural, eco-friendly alternative that burns cleanly without releasing harmful toxins.
Do your candles have strong fragrances?
Our candles are naturally fragranced with essential oils, offering a subtle yet pleasant aroma without the use of synthetic fragrances or harmful chemicals.
What is special about the Yorkshire Rhubarb candle wick?
The wick used in the Yorkshire Rhubarb candle is carefully crafted to ensure optimal burning. It is designed to adapt to the candle system, enabling a steady flame with minimal soot. High-quality raw materials and precise wick treatments enhance the performance, ensuring the wick bends towards the flame's hottest point, maximising combustion and reducing residue.

Directions
Trim wick to about 6mm before lighting. Always leave at least 10cm between burning candles, and always burn on a heat resistant surface. Never leave a candle unattended. Keep away from things that can catch fire. Keep lid on when not in use to help preserve the fragrance and keeps dust and debris from settling on the wax, ensureing a clean, even burn every time you light it.
Do not place candles in a draught or near a source of heat. Do not burn candle below 5mm from the base. Always snuff out the flame - DO NOT blow it out. Do not move a burning candle, allow to cool before handling.
