Wax tapers

Post by villers »

Hi everyone,

Where do you get wax tapers from? All the catalogues I have fail to have them.
Thanks for any help. :thumbup:

I must admit I have not looked for wax tapers for years. If I want long, thin type lighters now, I usually buy those long, colourful birthday candles. These are similar to wax tapers, probably just a tiny bit thinner. Good Luck

I was looking for them myself last year, and the only place i could find them is a church supply shop.And on the internet.
They weren't that cheap, anyway, I was lucky enough to find some at a $2 discount shop in my town, (of course I brought the lot) so try those types of shops you might have some luck. :D

Didn't we do this last year?

Church supply shops are best. Pure white imported tapers are twice as expensive as Aussie made beeswax ones, that burn better. Gaffney Trading sent me mine.
