Welcome to Applewood Candle Co.

At Applewood Candle Co., we believe you should never have to choose between beauty and well-being. Our clean, non-toxic candles are hand-poured with care - so you can light them with confidence and share them with the people you love.

Why We Started

When we noticed our golden retriever, Magnolia, reacting to traditional candles, we pressed pause on the store-bought candles we were burning in our home - and set out to create something better. What followed was months of research, testing, and small-batch blending. The result: elevated, pet-conscious candles that bring warmth and calm to your home - without compromising your air or your values.

From Wax to Wick: Our Standard

  • Coconut-Soy Wax: A clean, sustainably-sourced blend for an even, long-lasting burn.

  • Wooden Wicks: Natural, uncoated wooden wicks for a gentle crackle and minimal soot (trim between burns for best results).

  • Clean Fragrance: Naturally inspired, premium oils - always free from phthalates, parabens, Prop 65 chemicals, toxins, and carcinogens.

Each candle is hand-mixed and hand-poured in small batches in our Metamora, Michigan studio to ensure consistent quality, gorgeous cold AND hot throw, and a burn that feels as refined as it smells.

What You Won’t Find

Toxic wax, harsh additives, or chemically laden fragrances. We keep our ingredient list clean and purposeful - because “home” should feel safe, serene, and beautifully intentional.

Our Promise

Thoughtful materials. Meticulous craftsmanship. Elevated, non-toxic candles that turns everyday moments into little rituals - reading on the couch, hosting friends, taking a deep breath after a long day. From wax to wick, every detail is chosen with your well-being (and Magnolia’s) in mind.

We can’t wait for you to experience Applewood Candle Co. - a cleaner, more luxurious way to scent your home.
