Just a warning for anyone who wants to make these and use them as candles, be careful of what type of glass you use. If it is not heat safe glass, the heat from the candle can actually shatter the glass. I bought a candle from a regular store and third time using it, it shattered. Not saying this happens all the time, but i deff think this would be cute just as decoration!
Marisa DeAngelis thanks!
Marisa DeAngelis I was thinking the same thing in regards to the glass being heat safe!
Agree with you, Marisa. Heat-safe glass always for candle pouring. Please, no wineglasses: the glass is not necessarily heat safe and can shatter on you. Good observation!
Thanks for the warning, didn’t think of that!
This, there's a real risk
Okay: candle maker weighing in. My only real concern with this is the melting of the candle gel on direct heat. It's always better to use a double-boiler technique. Other than that, their technique is good. Always prepare for a re-pour (keep extra wax in case a divot forms around the wick as it solidifies). But best practice to add your fragrances off the heat (which they did). All-around good job.
Rosy Rondot The beating the wax with a hand mixer seems like the biggest pain to clean up. I mean cleaning the mixer after that:( Yikes!
you mean to melt it in a receptacle which you place in hot water, like how you melt chocolate?
Exactly, Artoria.
and what do you mean by "repour"? keep some of the melted candle gel on hand?
thanks :)
Now, instead of drinking away my problems, I can _burn_ them!
Painfully_ Logical why not both?!
Kelsey Carbary that's fair
Pfff my god
Painfully_ Logical your name suits your comment
Manya Goyal :) it’s changed now
This is so creative!
Does anyone else really want to just squeeze the clear candle gel
Nonexistent very much so
Nonexistent
Yes
I want to eat it
YES
@@melohavoc XD...why tho
A very cool idea.
Good job. ♡
Mawa J. Mayne omg you watch insider. I've seen a lot of your comments
FIRST INSIDER NOW NIFTY?! EVERYBODY EVACUATE!!
Angie Chaco hey. :)
Hi :)
Mawa J. Mayne oh my gosh you watch insider right? I see you everywhere!
I’d probably try to drink it if I didn’t know what it was
.
I did something like this for my mom back 4 years ago in a wine glass. She said it was a very thoughtful gift even though I'm under 21...
I love all of your candle videos! 😍
"Hey sweet candle bro, lemme give it a light"
"NO JOHNNY THAT'S MY DRINK!!"
*alcoholic cup bursts into flames*
They are simply the best!
Can you please recommend type glasses to use. I know heat safe but any suggestions?
I would play with those squishy ice cubes all day
Wow this is actually really cool and creative
Beautiful and creative candles and this video was edited well, too! Much love
I thought it said “Dank Candles”
Pineapple

Very creative........I love Nifty BuzzFeed video
Lord knows I won't do this. But, man, wasn't it amazing?
Nice idea.

Absolutely wonderful🍹🕯🍹🕯

Hunny you ate on these candles.. You bad boo boo.. Thank you for sharing. Im subscribing.
These are adorable
My favorite is the beer 🍺 I just made 3 candles of my own definitely want to try more
I wish this came out before christmas
Can you please list the different glasses that was used? Which type of dyes did you use? Also when making the two color gel candles, how long do you wait until pouring in the second color gel?
You could also probably re-use old candles for some of these to, not just buy supplies
I just want to dive into a tub of those jelly ice cubes
choose your glasses VERY carefully for this one! lot's of glasses meant for those drinks can't actually handle the hotness of the wax melting(thats about 80degrees celcius)
Cool idea! 👍👌
i accidentally read the title as drink candies OMG LOL
Same
Same
same.
_Please_ do not drink the candles.
Same
Awesome for Parties and Gifts
I've always loved these. Now I will make em but for decoration
Very nice 👍
Love this idea.
Awesome 👏
This wax makes great candles but the wax does not tolerate sitting out at an outdoor craft show or farmers market. I made margarita candles and the wax got soft and goopy🥺 I’ll only be able to sell these indoors in AC from now on.
These are amazing!
This deserves more views
this is the only buzzed vid without a shit ton of hate comments lmao
Can u pls pls make bubble bath mixture 4 ways
Samantha Koo why 4 ways??
That is a very specific request

If I were to work at a bar ( which I won’t) I would trick anyone with these 🕯 candles 🍺🍻🥂🍷🥃🍸🍹
This is actually really cool
Now THIS IS cool.

You are awesome, thank you.
My dads gonna love this
These are so cool
That looks like whipped cream on beer

Don’t the cubes and the drink part have the same melting point? What keeps the cubes in their form?
Very creative
At first I didn’t see the thumbnail and I thought you were gonna make edible candles or something XD
this is genius!
now THIS is really cool
keep up the good work guys
What the hell is candle gel
that_dog_girl3 Jiggly candle wax
Rhymie rhymes
thatphotogirl3
No clue
Can I use candle gel along with regular soy wax? Also can I use candle gel to give, let's say strawberry wax melts, a candied look? Or will it just melt the wax and bleed the color?
So cool
Awsome! Ans so the music!!!
This is sooo cooll!
@socrafttastic needs to do this!
The clear candle gel is gel candle wax
Too cool😱😱
I've never heard of these before, and I actually thought that these were legitimate drinks 🤣
Awesome
Look yummy to drink 🍸🍺🍷
When I saw the clear candle gel was squishy I died😂
this looks like a lot of effort in no way is this worth it
Where do you get the scented oil for these? Also do you use "Lime" scented for the "Margarita"?
I need to trick my older sister with this.
Amazing I live it
It says in the title "Drink Candles" then Imma just start drinking some candles then YEETT😂
Thats so cool
Does anyone know the best place to get the "Amber Candle Dye"?
I need the SONG!!!
I wanna eat that candies❤
So beautiful…..
Question would the beer was spill since it’s outside the container??
WHERE DO YOU GET CANDLE WICKS
could you also possibly do this with those jelly jolly rancher candles?
My daughter ran a mini-candle business that was handmade and burned her hand 47 times😂
Gyan Desai LOL😂😂😂
I want one
wow. just wow
Amazing
no drink is complete without an absurd amount of ice.
I thought it said candies, and when they started making the first one, I was like:
*bitch what*
2:11 don't use blender use fork it works same I did it.
Did anyone else read the title as "Drink Candies"?
