I currently sell a simple 100 mm x 60mm cylindrical pillar candle, and am interested in expanding my candle range.
Moulds are expensive and my quandary is, should I simply consider expanding my range of cylindrical pillar candles, or are novelty shapes worth a try?
In your experience, what candle shapes sell best?
I'm considering these slim candles, but am concerned it will take a lot of these to drive a £20 sale:

These are additional pillar candle moulds, which I can charge over £20 per item for:

Wax blocks, for use around the home (e.g. lubricating drawer runners):

A fancy cone mould
