I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

Candle Making Business is a how-to guide to making candles and potentially building up to launching your own candle making business. This book has a wealth of information, tips, and ideas and is a great guide to get you started. I want to get a physical copy of this book to go back to as I'd love to give many of the ideas for making candles in this book a go. I've not made candles in about ten years, maybe a little longer, and the recipes in this book sound fab and easy to do, too. The only downfall for me is that it's not in metric units that I'd have preferred or had an easy conversion chart to access in the book.

Thank you for the opportunity to review this new novel.

Great book and inspiration if you want to start your own candle-making business. Many advices and insights.

Very informative information and easy to read and felt relevant for me.

I was given a free copy by netgalley and publishers but the review is entirely my own.

Really neat book on making candles and business basics. Much applies to candle making but also many good business tips inside.

I requested this book because I just stumbled upon it and was curious to know what's inside. I must say I was intrigued the moment I started reading. The book is well written, and I was actually inspired to get into the business. It has all the tips anyone would ever need to start their own business.

This was the perfect book for me! I wanted to learn how to make candles and was completely clueless. This book made the process so easy!! Now....I can make my own candles instead of buying overpriced ones!! Win for me!

I want to thank Netgalley and the author for gifting me the ebook. I was very interested in reading this book and I really enjoyed it. I am not really interested in a candle business but hey who knows! I was looking to make my own candles. This was very informative and highly recommend for those who want to make candles or even if they would like to sell some at crafts fairs etc.

Whether as a hobby or a profession, this book is very informative with step by step instructions and tips to help you customize and experiment. The possibilities are endless. Very fun!

This is incredibly detailed and well thought out. Whether or not I’ll try to make a candle business is up to me, but I certainly have all the tools.

I think this book is great for giving you ideas on how to start your own business. In Chapter 1, the author gives you a list of all the ingredients you will need and where to get them. The author also gives good information on how to customize the candles and make them your own, the different types of waxes available, good marketing techniques, and how to-s for pricing, I found that this book had a lot of really great information and I recommend it for anyone that is looking to start their own business for primary or secondary income.

This is a book that has got me making A LOT of candles!! I had no idea how easy it could be to make candles...and make money from them. This book is the ultimate handhold to guide us through the process - from making that all important first candle to the steps and invaluable guidance involved in turning this into a profitable business.

Being a Brit I would have quite liked the 'recipes' to have been in metric units to ease accessibility, but this isn't essential and easily worked around.

I loved the business side of this book also, and find myself very motivated to source the 'Etsy' selling book that this author has also written!

My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book in exchange for an advance copy.

I like books that teach you something and are not just filled with useless fluff. Candle Making Business by Alyssa Garner is one of those books. She thought of everything too, from making your first candle to how to run the business of selling them.

I liked the way the author started out with a basic candle, then moved onto more advanced ways to make them. The business part of the book was wonderful, because she taught you step by step how to make the business legal and how to market it. Not only did she tell you all this, but she included links to places online where you can purchase your materials needed, There are many places to sell your items, and the author offers her opinions on the best places to get started.

I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys crafting and wants to learn something new, or anyone who would like to start their own business with candles.

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

This book is not only informative, but it is also inspiring! It covers candle making, sure, but also how to start an online business and keep it going. As someone who has tried (and failed) at making a e-commerce business, I have finished the book with a whole new zest for it. Tips and tricks for anyone looking to sell handmade products, or learn how to make a candle. Only downside for me is that it does require a sit down and read the whole thing before starting, but I see why in the end.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to be inspired.

Thank you publishers for providing me this ecopy through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.


There are so many tips in this little book that'll be really helpful. I bought candle making materials at the beginning of the year and used them just once. I can't wait to follow all these tips and make better candles.

A fantastic little book with plenty of useful tips and hints for how to grow a candle business. Some of it is common sense but it is good to see it written down. Broken up by chapters this step by step guide to creating a candle business is informative and easy to follow. Sadly, because it means that everyone will start doing it and I don't want even more competition for the little (but now hopefully growing) business I have. Great if you're a complete novice or just as a gentle push in the direction for those who have already started. My main issues - I didn't learn a lot and it was a lot of the basics and there were absolutely no pictures throughout this which made it a bit dull.

I love candles and I've actually considered selling candles as a side hobby/venture before reading this book. CANDLE MAKING BUSINESS taught me a lot about the ins and outs about making and selling candles.

Each chapter provided good tips (and recipes) on how to make candles and what it takes to form a small business.

The reiterated tip I thought was useful was how the author said don't go all out and skip ahead of yourself even though you may be excited to go all out right away. She said start with the basics - a simple candle that you created yourself. THEN add the extras and your personal touches to it.

The book gave a lot of information about forming your business and marketing tips.

I plan on buying this book myself when it's published and have a friend who also could use this information.

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for an e-copy of CANDLE MAKING BUSINESS.

I rate CANDLE MAKING BUSINESS four out of five stars.

Man, oh, man.

This is a goldmine of invaluable information. If you’ve EVER been interested in a small business or just make candles in general, you NEED this step-by-step guide to it ALL.

And I mean all.

This guide explains about different types of candles, waxes, how to customize them, how to package them. How to price them. The best places to sell them. I mean, SO MUCH INFO.

I’ve read other books from these authors and they give solid advice to get yourself started and off the ground. If you’re looking to start your own business as a chandler, this is a great resource to get and read.

I requested this book because I was just curious, but after I started reading, I was intrigued. The book was so well written that I was actually inspired to get into the business.

This is great! I've been wanting to make candles for years and this laid out the business aspect perfectly. I can't wait to utilize this information in my new candle business.

Thank you to Netgalley for an ARC!
