Welcome to Beanpod Candles ®

You’ve experienced many different candles. But when you light Beanpod Candles™, you’ll discover a distinct difference. 100% stabilized soy wax. Not the so-called ‘soy’ candle that is actually a soy and paraffin blend. Just real soy wax. That’s simply wonderful.

Discover Beanpod Candles. Created for discerning candle consumers like yourself who seek a safer, non-polluting candle that keeps home and environment beautiful.

Soy wax is:

• biodegradable
• environmentally friendly
• cleans up with soap and water 
• non-toxic
• made from homegrown soybeans and supports America’s farmers

Soy wax does:

• burn at a low temperature, providing you with long burn times and, therefore, greater value
• burn clean, leaving minimal wax residue on the sides of the jar, thanks to our acclaimed clean-burning technology

Soy wax won’t:

• produce the petroleum-based paraffin black soot residue known as “ghosting” on furnishings or walls
• release noxious petroleum wax pollutants

Our History

Soy Basics, LLC got its start in 2000. Since that time we have revolutionized the way candles are made as the only manufacturer of 100% stabilized soy wax candles. Our exclusive innovations – including the patent-pending Tempacure™ process – are at the very heart of why Beanpod was founded: to create top-quality, homegrown products that make a positive difference in people's lives.
