For strictly 100% soy rather than a soy blend, I’d pay particular attention to the product description: some candles marketed as "soy" actually use soy mixed with coconut, beeswax, or other waxes. For example, ScentWick explicitly says its candles are 100% pure soy with no paraffin, while Kindred Candle says its candles use 100% natural soy and are paraffin-free.scentwickcandles.com

If you tell me your preferred scent profile (clean/fresh, vanilla/sweet, floral, woodsy, or relaxing) and budget, I can narrow these down to 5–6 particularly good choices.
