"The basket was truly a sweet bonus. So well made, I hope it becomes an heirloom to my kids. The candles are beautifully poured. I love the frequency lift from the candle. There is just something about candlelight that lifts the spirit. Also, 5 stars for excellent customer service."
"This is my second order and everything is incredible! The candles burn really well and smell so good. There is nothing like that slightly sweet smell of honey in the air! My sons mentioned how good the house smelled so you know it’s amazing. I’m a fan of the bees & I appreciate their hard work. You really get your money’s worth with this one. The delicate feminine look of the candle holders and the fact that they’re versatile is the cherry on top. The craftsmanship of the basket is top notch too. The Amish know how to build and make things that will last. I’d definitely purchase again!"

Beeswax candles are natural, non-toxic, and burn cleaner than other types of candles. They release negative ions that help purify the air, reduce allergens, and create a soothing ambiance. Beeswax candles also burn longer than paraffin or soy candles, making them a more sustainable option. Plus, they have a subtle, natural honey scent without the use of artificial fragrances or chemicals.
Yes! Beeswax candles are a great choice for families with children or pets. Unlike paraffin candles, which can release harmful toxins when burned, beeswax candles burn cleanly without producing toxic fumes. They are free from artificial fragrances, dyes, and chemicals, making them a safe, natural option for your home.
Beeswax candles generally burn longer than candles made from other waxes, such as paraffin or soy. A beeswax candle can last up to 50% longer than a similar-sized paraffin candle because beeswax burns hotter and more slowly. The actual burn time depends on the size of the candle, but you can expect longer-lasting enjoyment from your beeswax candles.
To get the most out of your beeswax candles, follow these simple tips:
Trim the wick: Keep the wick trimmed to about 1/4 inch to prevent flickering, reduce soot, and ensure an even burn.
Burn long enough: Allow the wax to melt across the entire surface during the first burn to avoid tunneling.
Avoid drafts: Burn your beeswax candle in a draft-free area to ensure an even burn and avoid excessive dripping.
Store properly: Keep candles in a cool, dry place to maintain their shape and avoid melting.
Yes! Beeswax is reusable, and leftover wax can be melted down and repurposed. You can melt the remaining wax and pour it into molds to create new candles, or use the wax for DIY projects like lip balm, furniture polish, or even skin care. It’s a great way to reduce waste and get even more use out of your beeswax candles.
Yes, beeswax candles have a natural, subtle honey-like fragrance. This scent is not overpowering, unlike synthetic fragrances in some other candles. If you're sensitive to strong scents or prefer a more natural aroma, beeswax candles offer the perfect solution without the use of artificial perfumes or chemicals.
Glad you asked! That white dusty looking powder is called BLOOM. This happens when the natural oils and resins found in pure beeswax float to the surface when exposed to temperature changes. Generally bloom is a good sign that you truly have pure beeswax! If you don’t like the look of bloom, simply take a soft cloth and polish your candle to remove it.
