PROS of Wooden wicks

Crackle Sound: One of the distinct features of wooden wicks is the soft crackling sound they produce while burning. This soothing sound can evoke a sense of relaxation and add an extra element of ambiance.

CONS of Wooden Wicks

However, wooden wick candles also have their share of challenges. Some of them are listed below:

Inconsistent Burning: Wooden wicks may occasionally burn inconsistently, resulting in uneven melting of the wax and an incomplete burn. This can lead to wasted wax and reduced burn time if not properly managed.

Trimming Challenges: Trimming wooden wicks can be trickier compared to cotton wicks. Wood wicks often require a more precise trim to maintain the ideal length, which can impact the quality of the burn.

Slight Charring and Ash Formation: Wooden wicks may experience a slight charring or ash formation during burning, especially if the wick is not trimmed properly. While this is generally minimal, it can affect the overall aesthetics of the candle.
