WaxBench: Candle Calculator

Wick Guide, Costing & Studio

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Stop guessing your wax and fragrance ratios. Calculate exact specific gravity, blend up to 4 oils, and find the perfect wick size for your vessels completely offline. WaxBench is a precision utility engineered for candle makers who require exact measurements rather than rough estimates. Candle vessels are sold by liquid volume, but wax and fragrance must be measured by dry weight. WaxBench calculates exact wax mass directly from fluid volume using the specific gravity of your chosen wax base — preventing over-poured vessels, wasted supplies, and improper wick sizing. Built natively for iOS, WaxBench is private, fast, and completely offline. There are no user accounts, no tracking, no ads, and no recurring subscriptions.
