ABSTRACT:
A method for molding a novelty candle having flat sides incorporating a plurality of defined shapes located at the outer surface of the flat sides of the candle and a method of making same are provided. The method has the steps of: forming a sheet of wax to a desired thickness; heating the sheet of wax to below the melting temperature of the wax; cutting a plurality of shapes from the heated sheet of wax; arranging the plurality of shapes in a mold having an interior defined by flat sidewalls flush against the flat sidewalls and filling the interior of the mold with wax. In another embodiment, a novelty candle having a tree-like wax ornamentation on the surface thereof and a method of making same are also provided. The method has the steps of: providing a candle having a base and at least one flat surface; heating a supply of wax and dye on a flat heating surface to a temperature above a melting point of the wax to form a combined supply; placing the at least one flat surface of the candle on the flat heating surface of the hot plate so that the at least one flat surface comes into contact with the combined supply; and removing the at least one flat surface of the candle from the combined supply.
