A good candle is hard to find. I remember when I was little, my grandmother bought some amazing beeswax candles in Del Mar, California. They came in pairs, in a long white box, and I loved picking out the perfect color for the dinner table on special occasions. Years later, when I tried to track down that company, I found they had gone out of business and I have been on the hunt ever since. Well, I am happy to have finally found a suitable substitute.
Creative Candles is a company based in Kansas City, Missouri and their tapers have graced the tables of the White House, Lincoln Center, The Waldorf Astoria, the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong, and Martha Stewart’s own table.
12″ tapers: $16/pair
18″ tapers: $22/pair
They also make “celebration candles” which are like extra-tall birthday candles and are spectacular on cakes or cupcakes.
6″: $12 for a set of 12
15″: $20 for a set of 12
Assorted colors available.
