It suits the width of this candle, where one flame can melt the pool all the way to the edge, and it burns with a soft crackle rather than silently. Wooden wicks also do not mushroom and smoke the way an untrimmed cotton wick will.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes the tin get hot?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, more than glass does.
