“These candles are the purest clean burning candles ever... Beautiful scent; not overpowering, not too sweet.”
This is what it smells like when someone you love is baking in the next room, the windows are fogged, and you have nowhere to be. The fall candle for people who think most fall candles are too sweet.
This is what Thanksgiving morning smells like before anyone shows up. Pumpkin pie cooling on the counter. Cinnamon sticks sitting in a bowl. Butter softening on the stovetop.
Autumn Harvest has actual pumpkin in there—not pumpkin spice latte, not artificial gourd. Real baked pumpkin with cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, ginger. There's butter and pie crust underneath. Coconut and orange juice at the top. It's layered like something you'd actually bake.
People who hate pumpkin candles like this one. It smells like cooking, not scented wax trying to smell like cooking.
A reliable hostess gift from now through the end of the year.
How to Use: Trim the wick to ¼ inch before the first light. Let the wax melt edge to edge on that first burn — about an hour — to prevent tunneling. Keep individual burns to 1.5 hours maximum and let the candle cool completely before moving it. When roughly ½ inch of wax remains, retire the candle, wash the jar with hot soapy water, and put it to use.

Autumn Harvest smells like a pumpkin pie someone made from scratch — baked pumpkin, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, ginger, and star anise layered over butter, vanilla, and pie crust. It reads as warm, edible, and recognizably fall, but anchored in the actual baking smell rather than an artificially sweet version. People walk in while it's burning and assume you've been in the oven all afternoon. Customers describe it as not overpowering and not too sweet — fall comfort scaled for everyday burning, not a holiday-decoration scent that overwhelms a room.
No. Most pumpkin candles fail because they lean on coffee-shop pumpkin-spice-latte notes — cloying, syrupy, chemical — or generic "autumn vibes" air freshener. Autumn Harvest is built around an actual baked pumpkin pie: real pumpkin, real spices, butter and pie crust at the base. It's pie, not latte. If you've avoided fall candles because most of them read as fake or coffee-shop sweet, this is the version worth trying.
It peaks September through December — pumpkin pie has obvious autumn and Thanksgiving timing — but plenty of customers burn it well into the holiday season, and some keep it in rotation year-round. Good pie scent doesn't actually stop on Thanksgiving. It's especially nice in kitchens, dining rooms, and any room where food happens, and it makes a strong fall housewarming, hostess, or Thanksgiving gift. Pair it with our Cider+Spice Tea or Cranberry Honey for a complete autumn gift in under a minute.
Our 6oz jelly jar candles have about a 30-hour burn time. To get the full 30 hours, keep individual burns to 1.5 hours maximum and trim the cotton wick to ¼ inch before every light. On the first burn, let the wax melt edge to edge — about an hour — to prevent tunneling down the middle. When roughly ½ inch of wax remains in the jar, retire the candle. Always let it cool fully before moving it, and burn on a heat-safe surface, away from drafts, pets, and anything flammable.
Three things make the biggest difference. First, trim the cotton wick to ¼ inch before every light — long wicks cause smoke and uneven burning. Second, on your first burn, let the wax pool reach the edges of the jar (about an hour) so the candle doesn't tunnel down the middle. Third, keep individual burns to 1.5 hours maximum and let the candle cool completely before moving it. Burn on a heat-safe surface, away from drafts, pets, and anything flammable. Retire the candle when about ½ inch of wax remains.
Yes. Our jelly jar candles are made with 100% American-grown soy wax, a phthalate-free fragrance oil, and a 100% cotton wick. Soy burns cleaner than paraffin — no soot ring on your ceiling, no petrochemicals released into the air. There are no dyes, no synthetic colors, and no phthalates. Every batch is hand-poured in our Owings Mills, Maryland facility and inspected before it ships. Safe to burn in kitchens, bedrooms, home offices, or any room you actually spend time in.
Reuse it. Once the wax is gone, wash the 6oz jelly jar with hot soapy water and put it back to work. It's the right size for sugar, tea bags, paper clips, hair ties, bobby pins, spare buttons, loose change, jewelry, or as a small votive holder for tea lights. Some customers use them as bud vases or tiny salt cellars on the kitchen counter. We're not big on single-use anything, and the jars are too solid to throw out.
