A multi-region compressed wax article such as a candle is made by simultaneously dispensing multiple types of wax particles into a pressing mo ld to form a body of wax particles having corresponding multiple regions, and then the body of wax particles is compressed. A mass of wax particles divided into regions can be formed directly in the mold, or outside of the mold, and then dispens ed into the mold to form a body of particles for compression. Alternatively, a body of w ax particles can be formed directly in the mold, or outside of the mold and the n transferred into the mold for compression. The resulting mufti-region compressed wax article can have contiguous or non-contiguous regions of various shapes, such as parallel, swirled, checkered.
