Bubble Candle Silicone Mould Combo: How to Cast Perfect Cube Candles at Home
The Azlok 3D + 2D Bubble Candle Silicone Mould Combo Pack lets you cast the popular bubble-cube candles at home in two sizes: a large 3D mould and a smaller 2D mould, both made from flexible white silicone. You melt your wax, add colour and fragrance, pour into the cavities, let it set, and peel the silicone away for a clean, ready-to-burn candle.
What you get in the combo pack
This is a two-mould set designed for the trendy bubble or geometric cube look. Here are the basics:
- 3D mould dimensions: 6 x 6 x 5 cm per piece
- 2D mould dimensions: 3.5 x 3.5 x 3.5 cm per piece
- Material: high-quality flexible silicone, colour white
- Total weight: around 250 grams
- Made in: India
The larger mould gives you a statement centrepiece candle, while the smaller one is handy for tealight-sized accents, gifting sets or filling a tray. Buying both together means you can make matching candles in two scales for a coordinated look.
How to use the mould
Bubble candles are beginner-friendly, but a little care at the pouring stage makes a big difference to the finish.
- Choose a wax that suits pillar candles \,, blends made for moulded candles hold their shape best.
- Melt the wax gently in a double boiler until fully liquid. Avoid overheating.
- If you want colour, stir in candle dye; add fragrance oil once the wax has cooled slightly, following the fragrance load your wax allows.
- Thread a pre-waxed, primed wick through the centre. You can hold it upright with a wick holder or a small stick laid across the top.
- Pour the wax slowly into the silicone cavity to reduce air bubbles.
- Let it set fully at room temperature. A large 3D cube needs several hours \; do not rush it.
- Once completely cool and firm, flex the silicone gently and ease the candle out.
Getting a clean release
Silicone is naturally non-stick, so you usually do not need a release spray. Let the candle cure fully before unmoulding \, pulling it out while the centre is still soft will distort the crisp bubble edges. If the top sinks slightly as it cools, a light second top-up pour levels it out.
Tips and safety notes
- Always melt wax over indirect heat and never leave it unattended.
- Work in a ventilated space and keep water away from hot wax.
- Trim the wick to about 5\6 mm before burning the finished candle.
- Keep the mould, wax and hot tools out of reach of children and pets.
- Do not pour wax that is extremely hot straight into silicone repeatedly at high temperatures \, moderate pouring temperatures extend the mould's life.
- These candles are for decorative and home use, not for eating.
Buying and storage
The combo pack is priced at around INR 889 and comes in a Pack of 1 (today's deal), plus Pack of 2, Pack of 5 and Pack of 10 for hobbyists and small businesses making candles in batches. If you sell at markets or take custom orders, the larger packs let you pour several candles in one session.
To keep the moulds in good shape, wash them with mild soap and warm water after use, dry completely, and store flat away from direct sunlight and dust. Stored well, silicone moulds last through many pours. You will find this bubble candle mould combo, along with wicks, dyes and fragrance oils, in the candle-making section at Azlok, so you can put together a full kit in one place.
FAQ
Can I use this mould for soap or resin too?
Silicone moulds are flexible and non-stick, so many makers use them for melt-and-pour soap and resin as well. Keep separate moulds for food-adjacent and craft uses, and always cure and unmould fully before removing the piece.
What wax works best for bubble candles?
A wax formulated for pillar or moulded candles holds the sharp cube shape better than container-only wax. Follow the melting and pouring temperatures recommended for your specific wax.
How long does a candle take to set?
The smaller 2D cubes set faster, often within an hour or two, while the larger 3D cube may need several hours to firm up completely. Patience gives you the cleanest release.
Do I need a release spray?
Usually not. Silicone releases wax cleanly on its own. Just make sure the candle is fully cooled before you flex the mould and ease it out.
Can beginners use this combo pack?
Yes. Bubble candle moulds are among the easiest to start with. Melt, colour, wick, pour and wait \, the flexible silicone makes unmoulding simple even on your first try.
