Top Tapered Candles We Love

Reasons to love it: Yummi’s 12-inch taper candles are a great choice because they are both high-quality and affordable. They come in a traditional length and proportion and offer a wide range of 45 colors to choose from, allowing you to find the perfect shade and tone for your preference. The candles are crafted with a tinted, satiny paraffin coating over a white core, which ensures that the white core remains concealed even as the candle burns. During our testing, we found the green-tea-colored candles to be smooth, vibrant, and even to the touch. The wicks, featuring a tight, flat braid, were easy to light and produced minimal ash. The tapered base with molded grooves allows the candles to fit securely into standard candleholders without difficulty. In our testing, these candles did not drip at all during the first hour, and after the second hour, they produced a narrow, single stream of wax. Based on our experience, we estimate that a single Yummi candle will burn for approximately 7½ hours. In addition to the 45 available colors, these candles are also offered in 10-, 15-, and 18-inch lengths, providing a variety of options when searching for a classic taper candle.
