Q: What size vanilla extract should I buy for normal use?

For the typical household, a 2oz bottle of our Pure Vanilla Extract should last a month or two, while a 4oz bottle should last a few-to-several months from the date of purchase. For the Bake-until-you-drop folks - We’d suggest contacting us about some larger sizes!

For reference - there are about 12 teaspoons per 2oz bottle, and about 24 teaspoons per 4oz bottle.

Q: What is your vanilla extract made of?

Adagio 100% Pure Vanilla Extract is exactly as it sounds - Pure! We create fine extract the old-fashioned way; quality ingredients and time. We use only Grade A Madagascar Vanilla Beans in our extract.. We never add anything additional to our Vanilla Extract, unlike more mass-produced extracts that include added water for dilution and sugar.

Q: What are your candles made of?

Adagio candles are made with 100% Natural Organic Midwest-grown Soy wax, Natural braided cotton wicks, and scented oils. We never add anything additional to our candles - no dye, no additives!

Q: What is the burn time on your candles?

With all of our candles, if you trim the wick before each burn and burn them at minimum 1 hour each time; our 6oz. Candles should last approx. 40-45 hours. Our larger candles, such as the 13oz. Candles should last approx. 80-90 hours.

Q: Where do you get your materials?

We try to source as much product as we can locally/in the Midwest USA. All products are sourced from US Companies.

Q: Why should I trim the wick?

A good practice for any candle! A longer wick in turn creates a larger flame - which melts the wax faster, and this can cause the wax to melt at a higher pace than the wick is able to burn away. Trimming the wick before each burn (to about 1/4”) will make your candles last longer!

*Another good tip for candle burning is to try to burn a candle between 4-5 hours at a time. This will evenly melt the wax and avoid the “tunneling” effect, which is essentially a hole melted down the center of the candle. See our Candle Safety and Use tips here: Candle Safety & Use

Q: What does double fold extract mean?

“Double-fold” Vanilla Extract means there are more beans per ounce of alcohol for extractions than typical Vanilla Extract. This means it is twice the strength of typical store-bought Vanilla Extract, and each bottle will last you through that extra batch of cookies!
