>>Obviously, it's too dark to sell to candle makers, as they
prefer the white cappings wax, as I understand it.<<


I like to have many colors of wax for variety when I
make candles.  I use the dark brown colors to make
my "bear with skep" candles.  Makes a beautiful
bear.  I tell my customers that my candles are 100%
beeswax in natural colors (no artificial color added)
and I tell them where the various colors come from.
Candles in multiple colors (white, yellow, orange,
bronze, and brown) seem to sell better for me than
all of the same color.
