Abstract

A decorative candle and method of forming a decorative candle are disclosed. The decorative candle is fabricated from a wax material that defines a bottom layer having a top surface. At least one flanged gelatinous component formed from a mineral oil gel is placed onto the top surface of the bottom layer. A second layer of wax having a top layer is added such that the entire flange portion of the gelatinous component is covered, but at least a portion of the decorative (non-flange) portion of the gelatinous component protrudes above the top surface of the top layer of the candle.
