Hi, I’m Anna. I launched Wildlight Candles in 2019. I create quality scented candles in my kitchen near Woodbridge in Suffolk. I started experimenting with candle making back in 2016. I love candles, but I’d noticed some common quality problems with many scented candles. These were: excess carbon build up around the glass, and short burn times. Candle ‘tunnelling’. And overpowering, or underwhelming fragrance. I wanted to make longer lasting candles that burnt cleanly, consistently, with a more authentic, balanced scent. I only planned on making one or two, I thought it would be easy! But I soon realised it wasn’t going to be that simple. I grew addicted to testing various wax blends to achieve the perfect burn. I’d plug away at the ‘9-5’ by day, at my corporate job in marketing. And by night I’d be experimenting in my kitchen. Reading, researching and honing the skill.
