The Azlok Transparent Candle Jar (100 ML) is a small, clear glass container made for pouring your own candles, but it works just as well for tiny dessert cups, storage or party décor. It measures roughly 5.8 cm wide and 6 cm tall, weighs about 125 g per unit, and has a thick wall and heavy base so it stays steady and handles the warmth of a burning candle.
What you can make with it
This jar earns its place because it is genuinely versatile. The clear glass shows off whatever goes inside, which is why makers and home cooks reach for it again and again.
- Homemade candles: soy, beeswax or paraffin candles with cotton or wooden wicks. The 100 ml size is perfect for small gift candles and party favours.
- Dessert cups: serve mousse, panna cotta, tiramisu, shots of kheer or layered trifle for get-togethers.
- Small storage: keep spices, seeds, dried herbs, buttons, beads or craft bits visible and within reach.
- Home and event décor: tealight holders, mini planters for succulents, or filler jars for a dessert table.
How to pour a candle in it
If this is your first pour, keep it simple and take your time.
- Wash and dry the jar completely. Any moisture will affect how the wax sets.
- Fix a pre-tabbed wick to the centre of the base using a wick sticker or a dab of melted wax. A 100 ml jar suits one wick sized for a narrow container.
- Melt your wax in a double boiler and check the temperature with a thermometer.
- Add fragrance oil at the temperature your wax recommends, usually after removing from heat, and stir gently.
- Let the wax cool slightly, then pour steadily into the jar, leaving a little space at the top.
- Hold the wick straight with a peg or wick holder and leave the candle to cure undisturbed. Trim the wick to about 5 mm before the first burn.
You will find candle wax, wicks and fragrance oils in the Azlok range, so you can put together a full starter kit in one place.
Safety and care tips
Glass and flame need a little respect. A few habits keep things safe and the jar looking good.
- Always place the jar on a heat-resistant, level surface while a candle burns.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it away from children, pets and anything flammable.
- Do not burn a candle right down to the base; leave a small amount of wax so the glass does not overheat.
- Let the jar cool fully before touching or moving it.
- If you reuse the jar, remove old wax by placing it in the freezer for a while, then popping the hardened wax out and washing gently.
- For food use, wash thoroughly with warm soapy water first. Hand-washing is the safest choice for keeping the glass clear.
Buying and storage
The jar comes in packs of 2, 20 and 100, so you can buy a couple to try or bulk up for a small business or a big event. At around ₹149, the smaller pack is an easy way to test your recipe before committing to a large batch.
- Choose your pack by project: 2 jars for a trial, 20 for gifting rounds, 100 for markets or bulk orders.
- Store empties in their box or wrapped in paper to avoid scratches and chips.
- Keep them dry and away from sudden temperature swings, which can stress glass.
- Inspect each jar before pouring; do not use one that is cracked or chipped.
FAQ
How much wax does a 100 ml jar hold?
Plan for roughly 80 to 90 g of wax, since you leave headspace at the top and wax weight varies by type. Weigh your first pour so you can repeat it accurately.
Is the jar heat resistant enough for candles?
It is made of thick glass with a heavy base to handle the warmth of a normal candle burn. Follow safe-burning habits, avoid burning to the very bottom, and never expose the jar to a direct flame or sudden temperature change.
Can I use it for food, like dessert cups?
Yes. Wash it thoroughly with warm soapy water before first use. It suits cold and set desserts such as mousse, kheer and trifle served in small portions.
What wick size should I use?
Use a single wick rated for a narrow jar of this diameter. If the flame is small and the wax tunnels, size up; if it flickers and smokes, size down. A quick test pour helps you get it right.
Does it come in bulk for a small business?
Yes. Azlok offers packs of 2, 20 and 100, so you can scale from a home project to regular batches without changing your jar style.
