Flamingo Candles Cheesecake Crunch



Flamingo Candles Cheesecake Crunch Classic Square Jar Candle* - £12

This is the time of year when I go a little bit candle crazy. I always have to have at least one burning every night. I've recently fallen in love with these adorable little jar candles from Flamingo Candles. They're a fresh British company who create handmade organic candles. Here I have one of their classic square jar candles in Cheesecake Crunch. The scent of this one is described as a 'luscious medley of brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cocoa, maple, walnut, citrus & caramel' and it sure is delicious!

First of all I absolutely adore how these candles look. The jar, lid, colourful wax and plastic flamingo are such a cute combo. The flamingo on Cheesecake Crunch is a gold glitter one which is a bit of a Brucey bonus! My spirit animal perhaps? This candle smells truly incredible and has that kind of biscuity note that really does remind me of cheesecake. It's sweet, comforting, cosy & warming - everything you could want on an Autumn night. It is quite similar to the Vanilla Cupcake Yankee Candle which I also love. The scent quickly fills the room & it's sweet but not at all sickly. Each of the classic square jar candles offers 50 hours burn time at a very purse friendly price. The candle is made from EcoSoya soy wax and features a natural cotton wick resulting in a cleaner, longer & non-toxic burn. Some of my paraffin wax candles have been making me a feel a bit ill lately so I'm thinking of switching to just burning soy candles. Flamingo Candles are a brilliant choice if you've had similar problems with other candle brands.

As well as their amazing range of unique scents (Pomegranate cider? Yum!), Flamingo Candles also have some utterly delicious sounding Christmas candles available. I always end up buying loads of seasonal candles so I'll definitely be picking up the Toasted Almonds & Plum Crumble and Black Cherry Gluhwein candles. They'll make lovely presents too. I just can't resist those sparkly flamingos!

  13. I love burning candles at this time of year too but as you mentioned, I keep getting that ill feeling most of the time too and I end up opening a window just to get the sickly smell out.

    I've been burning one candle I've not had an issue with but sad to say the majority of candles that have been making me feel sick are Yankee Candles.

    I think I'll give these Flamingo Candles a go, they sound great and like the sort of thing I need really.

  15. I might have to order one of these because that scent sounds too good to pass up! The jar also looks like it would be nice to store stuff in afterwards, maybe make-up brushes?

  17. I've been meaning to try one of these for ages now! I quite fancied the sound of the Pink Lemonade one but now I'm tempted to try this as I LOVE Yankee Vanilla Cupcake. Maybe I'll get both! x
