About
Built by a chandler,
for chandlers.
WickWise started as a set of calculators I kept rebuilding for my own bench — fragrance ratios, burn time, wick sizes, pricing math. I put them on the web so other makers could use them too. Everything here is free, and everything you type into a calculator stays on your device.
What you'll find here
🕯️ Candle calculators
Batch math, fragrance loads by wax type, burn-time estimates, wick picker (cotton and wood), wax-melt ratios, dye amounts, and pricing that accounts for labor — not just "double the wax cost."
📖 Guides
Plain-language walkthroughs for beginners, choosing a wax, and working with fragrance oil — the stuff that usually takes months of trial and error.

Where this is going
WickWise is growing into a verified-seller marketplace — a place to buy candles from makers we'd vouch for personally, starting with our own pours. The calculators stay free either way. That's the deal.
