Hi, I'm new to candle making and I'm trying to replicate the effect on a candle in this picture. Any ideas? I should add that I've tried mineral oil and it doesn't appear to be a snowflake pattern. Just wondering if any seasoned candle makers know what would achieve this look. I'm also using paraffin wax.

Its a bit hard to tell, but could be Crystallizing Palm Wax(new) or Lava Palm wax.
You won't get these patterns with paraffin, these waxes have that pattern in them.
 
Here is another photo. I am beginning to think its not paraffin now! Crystalline looks highly likely
