Bryce and Maggie Murphree have always been lovers of candles, but after several experiences of candle scents not lasting and reading about harmful ingredients in candles, Bryce started tinkering in his home kitchen in a whole new way.
Coming from the fast-paced background and quality in high-end hotels and restaurants, Bryce wanted more from the product he was making, much like he always wanted and expected more from his food. “Different, better, creative, pretty, colorful and flavorful (or great smelling in this instance).”
After much research on a healthier, cleaner burning candle it was decided that soy wax was the higher quality, all-natural option. We found a cleaner burning eco-series wick to use in the candles and learned how to make plant based essential oils. With playing and mixing essential and fragrance oils to get the desired scents, it (unconsciously at first) became apparent that our scents were food related….go figure!! We use the maximum amount of fragrance oil the soy wax will hold to ensure the candles are as fragrant at the end of the candle life as they were on the first burn.
A 14oz soup can was the vessel we chose to bring our line full circle on our culinary background. Chef made soy candles that are culinary inspired and hand poured into soup cans. Food scented candles in a food container seems logical, right?!
Our candles yield a long burn life of 70-75 hours and have the best hot and cold throw that can be achieved. We believe in making the candles smell true to the name on the label. No superfluous frilly names required, EVER!
