Best to ask the priest what he bought.Altar candles used to be 100% pure then the requirement went to 66-2/3% and finally in the '50's down to 51%. After Vat II...it was anything goes.If there is any beeswax in the candle the amount should be molded into the side of altar candles near the bottom.
I have a large box of the remains of altar candles. I was thinking about melting them down to make household candles to sell at our craft sale. I was wondering what kind of wax they are made from. Are altar candles 100% beeswax, or a mixture? I would appreciate any help concerning the church laws.
