At a glance

A Titan Wax paraffin and soy blend (over 50% soy, made in Indiana). Hive & Honey has four unfinished wick tests and no chart.

Best for: Container candles. Hive & Honey recommends CD, CDN, ECO, LX and HTP wicks and suggests wicking up 1 to 2 sizes from Soy 10 and EC26 because of the higher melt point.1
Watch out: Hive & Honey has not found a working wick yet: HPSP 42 was too small, HPSP 54 and 57 too large, and HTP 105 single hung up so it plans to double wick.3 5 See problems Read the notes

Titan Wax ParaSoy 5474 wick sizes by jar width
Jar width	Wick	Supplier starting point	What makers found
3.13 in / 79 mm	Cotton HTP	2 x HTP 415 Hive & Honey's own wick test of this wax (the seller that publishes the chart) for 3.13 in jars Chart wording Hive & Honey's own wick test of this wax (the seller that publishes the chart; 3 1/8 in inner diameter at the top, fragrance not stated, 2 week cure, Libbey 2917 jar): she would stick with two HTP 41 wicks if double wicking (the 41s might be a bit small; HTP 52 doubled ran a tad hot). Unfinished.	None yet

Wick too small or too large with HPSP in a 3 1/8 in jar
What makers do: HPSP 399(42) was too small and HPSP 300(54) and 272(57) were too large; Hive & Honey planned a retest with smaller wicks.3
Hang-up on the jar sides with a single HTP 105
What makers do: Hive & Honey concluded a double wick is needed for this wax and jar. HTP 41 doubled was the pick if double wicking; HTP 52 doubled ran a tad hot.5
Soot at the rim with crackle booster wood wicks
What makers do: Crackle Booster .02/.625 failed with soot along the rim in a 12 oz jar; .02/.75 was still curing.2
Read the fix: Why Is My Candle Making Black Smoke or Soot?
LX 16 may need to go up one or two sizes
What makers do: About a third of the way through the LX test she thought she would have to wick up one or two sizes; the LX 18 burn started late and had no result.4
Melt point higher than Hive & Honey's soy and coconut waxes
What makers do: Hive & Honey says to wick up 1 to 2 sizes from its Soy 10 and EC26 wicks because of the higher melt point (134 F).1

Hive & Honey's product page says a combination of soy and food-grade paraffin with over 50% soy, "similar to Problend 600", with 10% as the fragrance load it can handle and 8% found best, and to pre-heat vessels if the room is below 70 F.1
Hive & Honey has no wick guide page for 5474. All four test posts use a Libbey 2917 straight-sided jar, 3 1/8 in inner diameter at the top, except the crackle wood test, which used a 12 oz round bottom jar ("the aura") with no width given. No fragrance name or load is stated in any of them, and every one waited 2 weeks.2 3 4 5
The HPSP post lists its wicks as 399(42), 300(54) and 272(57) and says the original post was deleted by mistake and recreated.3
The LX test (LX 16 and 18) and the HTP 104 test were still running or curing when read.4 5
Titan's own brochure calls it TitanWax ParaNatural 5474, paraffin and soy with a majority of soy, and gives 10% max fragrance, 134 F melt point, 126 F congeal point and a 155-165 F pour, the same as Hive & Honey's product page.6
