the type of solid of the candle wax is amorphous.

as the amorphous is doesn't melt at a certain temperature . and it is amorphous because it gets softer and softer and it doesn't melt at a certain temperature. so the wax shape change and being softer and when it re-cooled its shape will become harder again, without melting at distinct temperature.
