Paraffin wax is a common flammable solid used to make candles. It is derived from petroleum and has a low melting point, making it ideal for candle-making.

Paraffin IS wax. It is used on chocolate candies to make them shiny & pretty & also serves as a preservative. Paraffin is also used to make candles but this type is not intended for consumption.

Candles are made of wax, fragrance oils, dye blocks that are used to color candles. Keep in mind that there are different types of waxes that can be used to make candles. Some Candles also can contain natural essential oils as well.
No, candles can be made from various materials such as paraffin wax, soy wax, palm wax, and beeswax. Beeswax candles are popular for their natural scent and clean-burning properties, but they make up only a portion of the candle market.
Candles are all different and burn at different rates, but the color is not a factor. The amount of paraffin/beeswax, and the thickness of the wick primarily determine how fast a candle burns.
It is Paraphenylene Diamine and it is used in hair dyes. It is also known as PPD (and Kala Patthar in Pakistan). PPD can be very harmful to people. See the related link for further information.
There must be thousands of different brands of candles. Maybe you meant to ask what type, like paraffin or Beeswax? From my experience with candles, the ones that burn fastest are narrow paraffin candles, especially cheap ones. Birthday cake candles are a good example. A narrow candle has a smaller liquid pool at the top, causing the wick to burn down quicker, and also allows a lot of the wax to run down the sides of the candle, which starves the wick of wax and consumes it faster. Also, the size of the flame is not necessarily larger on a bigger candle. Flame size is dependent upon the size of the wick, and the liquid wax's ability to saturate and climb it. The wick only begins to shorten when there is not enough wax available to keep the wick saturated. A thinner candle generally has a higher Flame/mass ratio, allowing the wax to be consumed faster.
