Thanks for the comments.  If anyone is interested, I can post the flame for
fiddling with (I may have already done so a while back, can't really
recall)

The wax has a relatively uniform density (scattering media).  I have fresnel
reflection set for it and it has a smooth surface which is tending to make
it look liquidy at the top I think.  I suppose I could've either added some
roughness to the top, or maybe varied the media density to coincide with a
liquid/solid transition.
