Important before purchasing

This is an educational safety and business-foundations guide, not a step-by-step candle recipe or finished-product certification. It does not include Man-dle proprietary recipes, exact fragrance percentages, formulas, wick specifications, supplier information, or private production records. Consult appropriate supplier guidance, test your own products, and follow applicable rules before selling.
