Frequently Asked Questions

  • We use 100% soy wax, cotton wicks, and non-toxic fragrance oils. Every candle is hand-poured and hand-labeled in small batches, so you get a product that’s safe for you, your loved ones, and the planet.

    Crafted to Be Felt:

    Each candle is carefully made to evoke memory and emotion. Because we work in small batches, I dedicate time to each one. The result is a unique, personal fragrance experience that feels elegant, intentional, and safe.

  • Our candles have a generous burn time, depending on their size. Most of our artisan candles can provide a soothing ambiance and lasting fragrance for up to 60 hours, allowing you to truly cherish each moment.

  • To get the best experience from your candles, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting and burn two hours at a time. This will help ensure an even burn and enhance the scent throw, allowing you to maximize the enjoyment.

  • You can reach us anytime via our contact page or email. We aim to respond quickly! —usually within one business day. Follow us in our social media channels so you don’t miss out on New arrivals and giveaways.

  • Our candles are priced by size and scent complexity, reflecting the quality behind each one. Because every piece is handmade, hand-poured in small batches, and made with carefully selected materials and vessels, our pricing reflects true exclusivity. You won’t find mass-produced equivalents. The value is in the materials, the craft, and the fact that each candle reflects just that.

  • Soy wax is a vegetable wax made from the oil of soybeans. After harvesting, the beans are cleaned, cracked, de-hulled, and rolled into flakes. The oil is then extracted from the flakes and hydrogenated.

    The hydrogenation process converts some of the fatty acids in the oil from unsaturated to saturated. This process dramatically alters the melting point of the oil, making it solid at room temperature. The leftover bean husks are commonly used as animal feed.

    In addition to sustainability, a well-made soy candle will burn cleanly and slowly, much to the delight of our customers.

  • Our artisan candle gifts are thoughtfully wrapped and designed to impress. Each candle makes for a beautiful gift that conveys care, making it a cherished addition to anyone’s home. Please contact us for any custom-made orders! We love creating candles for your special moments.

  • Frosting is a byproduct of natural wax and is caused by the growth of tiny crystals on the wax's surface. All soy wax candles will frost over time, but luckily, frosting is purely an aesthetic issue and does not affect how your candle burns or smells.

  • At Happy Aromas, we believe you should get all the cozy candle vibes with none of the worry. Our Wickless Flameless Container Candles are hand-poured soy wax fragrances made to be warmed — not burned — under your favorite lamp warmer.

    Why you’ll love them:

    • No flame, no stress: Enjoy safe, soot-free fragrance in homes, dorms, offices, or anywhere open flames aren’t allowed.

    • Happy scents, big throw: Our lamp-optimized wax blend melts evenly from the top down, filling your space with fragrance from the first melt to the last.

    • Clean & simple: Each one comes in a reusable glass container. Just set it under your lamp warmer and enjoy!

    • Longer-lasting joy: Because no wax is burned away, you get more hours of fragrance per candle, depending on size. When the scent fades, just wipe out the container. The container can be refilled with wax melt refills or repurposed

    How to use your Happy Aromas wickless candle:

    1. Place the container directly under your lamp warmer.

    2. Turn it on and give it 10–15 minutes. The top will melt into a fragrant pool.

    3. Turn off when you’re done — the wax hardens and is ready for next time.

    4. Replace when the fragrance fades. Repurpose the cute jar or refill it with more Happy Aromas goodness.

    A happy note on safety:
    Use only with lamp warmers designed for container candles. Never leave your warmer running unattended. Stop using the jar if it chips or cracks. Do not burn more than 2 hours at a time.
