Abstract
Pillar candles which upon burning develop a decorative, aesthetically pleasing, free-standing shell having a filigree or lace-like pattern are provided. The candles consist of a fatty acid fuel composition, predominantly stearic acid and palmitic acid, and a 27-45 ply flat cotton wick. To obtain the desired decorative effect, the ratio of wick size to candle diameter is maintained at 12 to 19 plies per inch.
