Colonial Candle Unscented Evergreen Taper Candles, 12 in pack of 12

In this review the Colonial Candle Unscented Evergreen Taper Candles are judged on appearance, burn performance and suitability for events. These hand-dipped 12 in tapers are aimed at anyone who wants a deep green, classic taper for dinner tables, seasonal decor or formal gatherings; the single biggest reason to buy is their combination of a rich color and a mostly clean burn that creates an elegant, low-maintenance candle display. Review observations focus on burn behavior, drip resistance and how well the candles complement common holders.

Key Features

• Hand-dipped construction: The hand-dipped finish gives each taper a nostalgic, slightly textured look that suits traditional and vintage candelabras.
• Evergreen color: The deep green hue provides a bold accent that works for holiday tables, fall settings, and anytime a dramatic color is desired.
• Up to 10 hours burn: Each 12 in taper is rated for up to ten hours of burn time, making them suitable for long dinners and events.
• Cotton wick, low soot: The cotton wicks are designed for a clean burn with minimal soot, helping keep glassware and walls cleaner than lower-quality tapers.
• Virtually drip-free: Made with a high quality wax blend intended to minimize dripping for a neater experience.
• Pack of 12: A dozen tapers in one package makes it easy to outfit multiple holders or create matching centerpieces without separate purchases.

Who It's For

These tapers are best for hosts and decorators who want a consistent, formal look for table settings, weddings, and holiday dinners; the deep evergreen color pairs well with metallic holders and natural centerpieces. People who value traditional, hand-crafted presentation will appreciate the hand-dipped finish and full dozen pack.

Those who need fully dripless performance for very delicate surfaces or who demand guaranteed identical burn behavior across every candle may want to test a single taper first, since some buyers report occasional variability in drip. If scented candles are preferred, these unscented tapers are not the right choice.
