  • My name is Jessica González and I am the owner and beekeeper of Happy Organics. I started making hand-dipped beeswax candles out of my kitchen on our family farm in Merced, California. My business has been growing so I had to move my workshop to the garage. I bought a bigger customer wax melter recently to accommodate the increase in demand for my orders. Please let me know if you have any questions about my setup or equipment. I’m happy to answer.

    Thank you for sharing these videos. I make candles on a very small scale but hoping to increase production a little more so it’s interesting to see how candle makers like you work. Cheers! 😊

    Loved watching this video, super insightful. I didn't know you did all this even though I'm your sister and see you often.

    Amazing first video!! I’ve been watching your shorts and have enjoyed them. Hopefully the next video you can show us more about the beeswax filtering? Or what got you into making candles? This was very informative and brief :)

    This is great! I am a Hobbyist beekeeper and have been wanting to make tapers and appreciate this video and sharing. What is the name of the taper dipper tool? Also curious if you have any tips for coloring beeswax as that's what I would love to do. Thank you!

      Thank you Eman! :) I got the dippers from Diamond Dye. They’re a lot cheaper than other places online

      ​@@HappyBeekeeping Thanks for your reply :)
      I live in Egypt so I think shipping from the US will be so much of a hassle. I tried looking for something DIY instead. if you ever fancy such an undertaking, check out this video showing how to make it at home. czcams.com/video/fBDpdqzost4/video.html&lc=Ugw2wTKrpKxLa_lBKvN4AaABAg.9VYXHAkuzFt9V_HLrAJSgJ
      Love your spirit, the brand, the doodles on the packaging, and everything that you do hehe
      biiiigggg fan from across the world and hopefully I come to the US soon and personally try your offerings xx
