Candles were originally made either of tallow (animal fat) or beeswax.
A reed would be dipped in the liquid and allowed to harden, then repeated till the desired thickness was achieved.
With the advent of the early petroleum industry, paraffin wax became available, and has displace the tallow, but beeswax still has a following because of its aroma.
To the Q, tallow could be white if pure, and beeswax is a pleasant tan.
