MOREL MUSHROOM CANDLE
-
Beeswax is simply that— nothing else is added. The material itself is so incredibly useful and the natural scent so pleasing, that for there’s little temptation to add modifiers or scents.
-
Beeswax is its region and season. The color and fragrance of the beeswax itself will vary greatly depending on what flowers the bees are pollinating. We work with a farm who’s bees consistently produce our all-time favorite wax, and we have the privilege of supporting these farmers who care for these bees.
-
Beeswax comes from nature, and the best wax comes from the healthiest bees. So supporting our favorite bee farmers directly supports the bees that are happily pollinating the orchards, queen’s laced fields, and flowering gardens of Leelanau and Benzie county.
-
Beeswax candles are understood to clean the air of spaces where they are kept and burned. They burn at the same light spectrum of sunlight. Additionally, beeswax has been understood to release N-ions, which are known to be present around thunderstorms and crashing ocean waves and studies suggest may support mental and cognitive well being (focus, clarity, calm, optimism).
Natural beeswax is safe for any use and consumption, from lip balms and health use to food use and cutting board conditioning. We love beeswax around here.

Making a mold from a REAL morel mushroom, traditionally, is considered “impossible.”
We tried it anyway. It didn’t work.
But through trial and revision, and inventing a new process, we figured it out, and the results have been incredible. Photos don’t really do it justice, these really are incredible in person. Thank’s for shopping!
FIRST OF ITS KIND
I’m an asthmatic candlemaker. I might be a slow runner but I am quick to be bothered by chemicals in scents and products that most people don’t seem to notice. It’s why I started making my own candles, and why we get so excited about sharing them with others.
No phthalates. No parabens. No lead. No VOCs. No adhesives or those polypropylene stickers.
Our pure beeswax and soy wax is local and organic. Our fragrance oils are clean, certified, and must pass the asthma test. Our stone container’s color is natural, derived from soil pigments, and made candle safe with an earth safe seal.
