100 Pure Beeswax Church Candles - Orthodox Tapers, Dripless and Slow

In this review the reviewer looks at a pack of 100 pure beeswax church candles and finds they are best suited for home altars, icon corners and quiet prayer spaces where clean burning and a natural scent matter. The single biggest reason to buy is the all natural composition: these tapers are handmade from pure beeswax with cotton wicks, producing a slow, dripless burn and a subtle honey aroma that avoids artificial fragrances. For someone who wants traditional Orthodox-style tapers in bulk, this pack delivers consistent candles ready for ritual use.

Key Features

• Pack size: A pack of 100 candles provides a long supply for regular services or home devotional use without frequent reordering.
• Natural composition: Made from pure beeswax with no artificial fragrance or chemicals, so flames burn clean and the scent is naturally mild.
• Handmade construction: These tapers are produced by repeatedly dipping cotton wicks in melted beeswax, which keeps each candle traditional in appearance and feel.
• Slow burning: Each 11 in by 5/16 in candle burns for approximately 1.5 hours, useful for single services or evening prayer sessions.
• Traditional style: The standard Orthodox taper shape works with common church holders and home altar setups for a classic look.

Who It's For

These candles are aimed at people who maintain a home altar or icon corner, small congregations, or individuals who observe daily prayer and want a natural beeswax option. The pack of 100 is particularly practical for households that burn candles regularly or for small parishes that prefer to stock a large quantity of identical tapers.

People who need decorative scented candles, colored tapers, or extremely long single-candle burn times beyond ceremonial use may want to compare other specialty candles. Also, those expecting machine-precision uniformity should note these are handmade and may show minor size variations.
