One of our most requested products, these Medium Crackling Booster Wooden Wicks are perfect for soy wax and beeswax container, pillar, and votive candles! Eco-Friendly and Clean Burning, these hand-crafted Wooden Wicks are made from fruit trees sourced in the USA from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)-Certified Mills.

Technical Information

Technical Information:

  • Medium Crackling Booster Wood Wick
  • Dimensions: 0.5" width x 5" length (.04" thickness)
  • These wooden wicks do not need to be soaked in oil or melted wax, as in their natural state they will provide you with the most optimal performance.
  • The amount of crackle that is produced will vary based off of the candle wax blend, amount of color, fragrance load and additives used in making the candle. Experience shows that the higher the fragrance load, the more crackle is produced.
  • Always tab the wood wicks prior to placing in wax. When placing your wicks, let the wax start to get slushy (solidify on the bottom) and then center your wick. Then you can pour the rest of your wax into the container.
  • These wooden wicks are made from fruit trees that are sourced from FSC certified mills in the USA. The FSC or Forest Stewardship Council is an independent, non-profit organization that protects forests for future generations and is the only forest certification system supported by groups including the Natural Resources Defense Council, National Wildlife Federation, WWF, Sierra Club and Greenpeace.
  • This Crackling Booster wick is classified as a single ply wooden wick with an adhered 0.2” thick booster wick. Adhered Wicks are created by attaching two or more wicks together with a thin layer of non-toxic adhesive, to make a single layered wick.
  • These Wooden Wicks are 100% natural and are not processed in any way. They are non-toxic and clean burning.
  • We always recommend letting your candles set overnight to cure the wick before burning. When lighting your candle for the first time, light the wick where the wax meets the wick (not at the top of the wick)
  • How long should my wick be? It is generally said that your wick should be between 1/8” - 3/16” before lighting, so trimming may be necessary depending on the height of your candle.

Which Wick Do I Choose?

This information is provided only to indicate general trends. Choosing the correct type and size of wick is one of the most important steps to a great burning candle. While we give wicking suggestions, there are many variables, including wax type, fragrance level, dye and style of container that can affect how a candle burns. In the case of some larger diameter candles, one wick may not be enough and multiple wicks may be required for the candle to burn optimally. We recommend that you always TEST, TEST, TEST your candle before manufacturing to ensure you have chosen the correct wick for your candle.

Wicks Continuously Fizzled Out

I really wanted to love these wicks. They looked beautiful in the candles but they just wouldn't stay lit. Had to melt down the candles and remake with cotton wicks.

No crackle

I gave a 3 rating solely for the fact there really wasn’t a crackling sound (unless you put your ear right up to the candle) which for me was the main reason for buying. I used them in a 8oz tin and made sure the wick cut was low so not sure why they’re not crackling. Otherwise the burn was great. Never had an issue with it going out or not having a flame.
