Scents: Dark Chocolate · Laminated Pastry · Warm Butter · Hand-poured in: North Carolina, USA · From: $11.99 (wax melts)
This chocolate croissant candle is the one you were not going to buy and bought anyway — dark chocolate melting into the middle, pastry shattering everywhere, and butter warm enough to leave a mark on the paper bag.
It belongs beside long lazy chapters, cafe scenes, and any book that gets read slowly because there is no reason at all to hurry. Like every Aarka Origins candle, it is truly handmade: hand-poured in small batches in North Carolina from 100% pure soy wax, with no paraffin and no blends.
DARK CHOCOLATE · LAMINATED PASTRY · WARM BUTTER
Fragrance family: Gourmand & Bakery
The difference between this and a plain chocolate candle is the lamination: a dry, flaky pastry accord layered over the cocoa so the sweetness has something to break against. Without it, chocolate in soy goes heavy and one-note within an hour. Poured, wicked, and inspected by hand in North Carolina from 100% pure soy.
The pastry. The chocolate croissant candle has a buttery, flaky top layer over the cocoa, which keeps it from smelling like a chocolate bar and makes it read as something that came out of an oven.
It is one of the more reliable gifts in the catalog. Chocolate-and-pastry is a safe bet for almost anyone, reader or not. Wax melts from $11.99 make an easy small gift or a stocking filler.
It is. The Parisian Bakery is hand-poured in small batches at Aarka Origins' North Carolina shop from 100% pure soy wax — no paraffin, no wax blends, no dyes, and a lead-free cotton wick. The fragrance oils are phthalate-free, vegan, and never tested on animals.
Trim the wick to 1/4" before each burn and keep burns to about two hours at a time for the cleanest, most even melt pool. Browse the full book lover soy candle collection.
Smells AWESOME, on time, pretty packing, no residual smoke.
Smells great, just like the Trader Joe's candle that was discontinued. Glad I found you.
