Watch the process unfold

A short preview. The full step-by-step tutorial is included with your purchase.

Sound familiar?

You copied every step you could see. The marble came out flawless. Then you lit it — and the flame sank and drowned within minutes.

Yours looked identical to the video. But it burned for ten minutes. The original burns for over four hours — and you can't work out why.

The difference isn't in what you can see.
This tutorial teaches the structure beneath the surface — the part that actually decides how it burns.

From the artist

In this tutorial you'll make a small, palm-sized marble candle in gel wax. If you've ever wanted a crisp, clear marble pattern — your own chosen colours set vividly across a perfect sphere — this is for you. Beyond the making, it's packed with side-by-side comparisons of different self-standing gel waxes, real burn tests, and where to source every material.

Go to rocadesignworks.com/watch/ and enter the email address you used at checkout — your tutorial appears straight away. No account or password is needed, and the link is also included in your confirmation email. You can watch as many times as you like, on any device.

Can I download the video?

No. Videos are available for streaming only via our secure member area to protect content integrity.

How long will I have access to the video?

Your purchase gives you ongoing streaming access through our secure member area. I'm fully committed to keeping this content available for the long term. As with any online service, availability depends on continued operation.

Can I use what I learn commercially?

Yes. You may sell candles made using techniques from this tutorial. Redistribution of the video itself is strictly prohibited.

What materials do I need?

A full materials list is included with your purchase.

Is the video in English?

The tutorial is filmed in Japanese with English on-screen text. Hand-technique focused — easy to follow without language.

Can I use gel wax I already have at home?

The tutorial films two different waxes — one with a higher melting point and one with a lower (the softest self-standing gel wax sold in Japan, melting point 84°C) — so you can see how each behaves. If your wax is a self-standing (hard) type in tea-light size, it will work fine.

Can I get the materials outside Japan?

Yes. The core supplies — self-standing (hard) gel wax, an HTP-type wick, a small sphere mould, and pigments — are widely available through candle-supply shops and online retailers. The included Materials List PDF gives full specifications and quantities for each item, so you know exactly what to look for wherever you are.

What is included with my purchase?

You receive: (1) streaming access to the full tutorial video, and (2) a downloadable Materials List & Recipe PDF (full materials list plus the complete recipe). Both appear together on your Watch page once you enter your checkout email — no account needed.
