Can you use my Instagram candle photos if the profile triggers a login wall?

We use what the public profile exposes without signing in. That commonly includes a preview, grid thumbnails, bio text, highlight covers and the og:image. The login wall may hide individual posts or Reels, so the video must be built from the accessible material rather than assuming the full candle catalogue is available.

Will the video mention fragrance notes that are not in my profile?

No. We use scent descriptions that are visible in your bio, thumbnails, accessible captions or other public preview material. If your profile only shows candle names without explaining their notes, we keep the copy grounded in those names and visuals. A later prompted video can use extra details you provide.

Can the ad focus on my hand-poured candle process?

Yes, when the accessible profile material shows or describes that process. Pouring wax, positioning wicks, applying labels and presenting the finished burn can form a clear sequence. If only finished jar photographs are public, we will not pretend we captured workshop steps that the profile does not show.

Should a trending sound be included inside my candle video file?

No, if you want the platform to recognise that specific sound. We provide the sound as a link for you to attach natively when posting the candle ad. Baking it into the H.264 file would make it ordinary embedded audio, not an official use of that platform sound.

Turn your candle grid into a scent-led video ad

sizzledraft turns a candle maker's public Instagram profile into a short video ad using real profile visuals and brand details. It builds scenes around scent descriptions, hand-poured production and the products visible in grid thumbnails, the bio and highlight covers.

How can I make a candle ad from my Instagram profile?

Paste the URL for your candle brand's Instagram profile. The first video is cut from the site alone, using the public material our browser can reach, such as your bio, grid thumbnails, highlight covers and og:image. We look for the details that matter to candle buyers: fragrance notes, wax or wick information stated on the profile, hand-poured process shots, jar styling and the mood of the finished burn. Those details shape a scene using the profile's own visible colours and visual character. We then render the video frame by frame and score it with synthesised audio. Later videos can accept a prompt, so you can ask for a focus such as a spring scent, a gift set or your pouring process.

How do you show a candle scent in a short video?

A useful candle video does not rely on a jar shot alone. It gives the viewer concrete scent cues from the profile, such as bergamot, cedar, vanilla or sea salt, then connects those notes to the candle's setting and hand-poured origin. A grid image of wax being poured can lead into the finished vessel, while bio wording or a highlight cover can establish the collection or fragrance family. The opening three seconds should name the scent or the moment it suits, because viewers cannot smell through the screen. We keep the copy tied to details that are actually visible or stated on the public profile. If the profile does not identify the wax, wick or fragrance notes, we do not invent them.

What video file do I get for promoting handmade candles?

You can receive a vertical 1080x1920 video for phone-first placements or a horizontal 1920x1080 version for wider screens. Videos render at 30fps in H.264, with audio normalised to -14 LUFS. That makes the result practical for showing a wick being set, wax being poured, a label close-up and the final candle glow in a compact sequence. If you want to use a trending sound, we hand it over as a link so you can attach the sound natively on the platform. We do not bake that sound into the file, because baked-in audio does not count as using the platform's sound. The available plans are $19 for two videos or $39/month for eight.

What the browser actually gets

Our browser uses the public Instagram preview to capture visible grid thumbnails, bio text and highlight covers when available. Instagram's login wall can limit the profile view, so we usually work from the public preview and the page's og:image rather than assuming every post or Reel is accessible.

The common mistake

A common mistake is opening with only a static candle jar and leaving the fragrance unnamed. Fix it by leading with a specific scent note or burning occasion, then show the hand-poured step and finished glow as proof of the product behind the mood.

A candle's scent cannot travel through the screen, so the video must translate fragrance notes into a clear visual story.
Pouring wax, setting wicks and finishing jars take time to film, trim and arrange into a short ad.
Instagram grid posts often mix seasonal launches, market dates and process shots, making it difficult to give one candle a focused sales message.
