Traditional Methods for Candlemakers: Adding a little paraffin (canning wax, available at supermarkets, hardware stores) might help, but it sounds like she needs to add some stearic which stablizes other waxes (also burns longer). That you’ll need to get at a craft center or candle-making shoppe. Beeswax also softens other wax, and a more malleable wax is less likely to crack, so she could add some beeswax. As for around the house — any used commercially made candles? Add clean pieces of old candles to the mix (they will already have stearic in them) and that might help.

If you want to eschew traditional candle additives (the stearic, parrifin, candle, beeswax, etc.) try upping the fragrance oil by a teaspoon. Your sister should be using one ounce of oil to one pound of soy wax. Oil are important in soy candles for aroma as well as helping keep the wax malleable, so if she is using the appropriate balance, try adding a little more oil, a few drops at a time up to a teaspoon, and make sure the oil is well infused in the wax before pouring..

The temperature before pouring might be a little too high. A simple test is to stick a finger in to the translucent melted wax, if it feels very-warm-to hot it and takes about five seconds before turning opaque, its about right. If the opaqueness sets in before 5 seconds, its a little too cool. Too hot — you’ll feel it, and this can cause cracking problems. Another problem might be cooling the candles too quickly., i.e, too cool an environment. Try placing the poured candles on top of the fridge where it is a bit warmer so they will harden a little more slowly.

Good luck!
