These tealight cups are a good quality and they do self extinguish after about 2 hours burn with soy wax in them. However, I am shocked that the price has doubled with no warning from $18 for 100 cups to $37! I don’t know if it is a temporary thing or not but I probably won’t be buying them for a while at this price.

Thanks for your review, we’re pleased to hear that you recognise the superior quality of these USA made tealights. I understand your shock at the price, since COVID we’ve seen a tripling of shipping costs from the USA, a steady weakening of the NZD plus an increase in price from the supplier. We do hope this will be temporary but as a wholesaler we have no option to pass on these cost increases I’m sorry.

Great tealight cups. So much easier to use that the metal ones that lose their shape so easily. A pity they are not made from recyclable plastic, but they are sturdy enough to be washed and reused. As for burn time – that has to do with the container. Mine burn perfectly every time and look great!
