The present invention is a candle wick treated, either by being coated with or incorporating, a chemical formulation. Such treated candle wick has properties causing the wick to be stiffened sufficiently that the candle wick is operable to be positioned in a straight (or virtually straight) position within a candle mold for a candle making process, as well as when surrounded by the candle body and during use of the candle (e.g., burning of the candle), and also has flexibility characteristics whereby the wick will return (bounce-back) to its straight or virtually straight position after force is exerted thereupon. No tension need to be exerted upon the wick or any tools used to exert tension to hold it straight in the mold, unlocking one of the foremost bottle-necks in high-speed filling, by taking wick fixing / straightening out of the equation.
