Burning it well

  • First burn: 2–3 hours, until the melt pool reaches the edge. This prevents tunnelling for the life of the candle.
  • Trim the wick to 5 mm before every burn.
  • Burn no more than 4 hours at a stretch, on a heat-resistant level surface.
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended, or within reach of children and pets.

Care & safety
  • First burn. Burn 2–3 hours, until the melt pool reaches the edge. This prevents tunnelling for the life of the candle.
  • Trim the wick to 5 mm before every burn. An untrimmed wick soots and burns hot.
  • Best scent throw. Burn in a closed room of up to 200 sq ft; give it 30 minutes to fill the space.
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep away from children, pets and anything flammable.
  • Burn on a heat-resistant, level surface. Stop when about 10 mm of wax remains.
  • Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a stretch.
Product information
Burn & care

Trim the wick to 5 mm before every burn. This is the single thing that most affects how your candle performs — an untrimmed wick smokes, mushrooms and burns through wax far faster.

First burn: let it run 2–3 hours until the melt pool reaches the edge. Soy wax has a memory; if the first burn tunnels, every burn after it will tunnel.

In Indian summers: keep candles out of direct sunlight and away from a hot windowsill. Soy softens above roughly 35°C. If a piece softens in transit it re-firms in a cool room within a couple of hours.

Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep it away from curtains, children and pets.

Burn ritual

How to enjoy it

Three small habits for a cleaner burn and a scent that lasts to the last centimetre.

  1. 2 to 3 hours

    Step 1: Make the first burn count

    Let it burn until the melted wax reaches the edge. This stops tunnelling for every burn after.

  2. 5 mm

    Step 2: Trim the wick each time

    A short wick gives a steady flame, no smoke and a longer-lasting candle.

  3. Up to 4 hours

    Step 3: Burn, then rest

    Blow it out after 4 hours and let it cool fully before lighting again.

Decent but expected more

It looks cute but the quality of the wax could be better. The scent is barely noticeable. Okay as a decorative item but not great as a candle.

Cute gift idea

Nice candle with a sweet design. Good quality wax. Took one star off because the scent is very faint. But as a decorative gift it's lovely!
