9 oz | soy wax | toxin-free | premium grade + essential oils | cotton wick
Notes: cardamom, amber, maple, lemon verbena
If I had a breakfast nook, I would most certainly spend quiet mornings curled in it with a fresh pastry and a hot tea. My friends Hilary and Nourdine introduced me to lemon verbena tea, and it is the coziest medicine (verbena leaves steeped with honey and lemon juice—so simple and lovely). Hilary has also introduced me to just how beautiful breakfast pastries can be, how wonderful they can taste, and how integral they are for starting a day with intentionality. I live in a culture where food and guilt are often intertwined in the name of keeping a trim and healthy figure, and while I understand the importance of good nutrition—I don’t want to feel ashamed for appreciating the unmatched tastes and textures of buttery dough and its many breakfast iterations. In my adulthood, the cardamom bun has become a delight to savor. In my childhood, a maple cream stick donut was my top choice for a Saturday morning. This candle is a shameless ode to my favorite doughy breakfasts. Thank you, maple. Thank you, cardamom. Thank you, lemon verbena tea. And thank you to the hands and hearts who bring such warmth to our breakfast nooks, helping us to begin our days joyfully.
