Our Clean, Non-Toxic Ingredients
At Applewood Candle Co., we believe clean fragrance should be the standard, not a luxury. Every candle is hand-poured in small batches with non-toxic, clean ingredients that are safe for you, your family, and yes, your pups, too!
Transparency is at the heart of everything we do. From wax to wick, we're committed to creating non-toxic candles that allow you to enjoy candles without questioning what's in the air around you.
Why Clean Ingredients Matter
Our founder, Allison, learned that many "clean" candles still hide harmful toxins... and everything for her changed! What began as a mission to find safe, non-toxic scents she could confidently burn around her golden retriever, Magnolia, became Applewood Candle Co.! The standards are simple: if it's not safe enough for our own home, it isn't going into yours!
Clean, Non-Toxic Fragrance
We believe luxury home fragrance should never come at the expense of what you bring into your home. That's why every Applewood fragrance is thoughtfully developed using ingredients that meet our rigorous clean fragrance standards. Our scents are always free from phthalates, parabens, Prop 65 chemicals, carcinogens, mutagens, and other known toxins, allowing you to enjoy beautiful home fragrance with confidence. While we thoughtfully incorporate essential oils, we don't believe that "all-natural" automatically means safer. Some essential oils naturally contain compounds that have been flagged for toxicity or sensitization concerns, which is why we evaluate every ingredient individually. In some cases, a carefully formulated clean fragrance oil is actually the cleaner and safer choice. Rather than limiting ourselves to a single ingredient category, we select the safest, highest-performing materials available so every fragrance meets our standards for safety.
Premium Coconut-Soy Wax
Our candles are crafted with a premium coconut-soy wax blend made from renewable, plant-based resources. This clean-burning wax produces minimal soot, provides exceptional fragrance throw and burns more slowly and evenly than many traditional candle waxes. The result is a longer-lasting candle that fills your space with scent while supporting a cleaner burn from the first light to the final glow.
Crackling Wooden Wicks
Every Applewood candle features an FSC-certified wooden wick sourced from responsibly managed forests. Unlike traditional cotton wicks, our uncoated wooden wicks create a gentle crackling sound reminiscent of a cozy fireplace while helping to deliver a clean, even burn. Thoughtfully chosen for both performance and ambiance, they're one of the details that make an Applewood candle feel like a small everyday luxury.
The Applewood Standard
Applewood Candle Co. is a clean home fragrance collection that invites indulgence without sacrificing wellness. We believe the most meaningful moments at home are accompanied by a candle, a quiet invitation to slow down, settle in, and be fully present in the moments that matter most. Free from toxins found in traditional candles, our artfully inspired scents are consciously hand-crafted from wax to wick. Experience pure, luxury fragrance... because the beauty of home is found in the simple moments and little luxuries.
Candle Care
Your ideal candle experience begins with proper care. Follow these simple candle care tips to enjoy a cleaner burn, stronger scent throw and longer candle life from your candle.
Trim Your Wooden Wick
Before each burn, trim your wooden wick to ⅛–3⁄16 inch and remove any loose char. A properly trimmed wick helps promote an even melt pool, a steady flame and a clean-burning candle experience.
Enjoy Safely
For best results, burn your candle for 2–4 hours at a time and never longer than 4 hours. Keep candles away from drafts, vents, ceiling fans, children, pets, and anything flammable. Always place your candle on a heat-resistant surface and never leave a burning candle unattended.
Let the Wax Melt
During your first burn, allow the melted wax to almost reach the edge of the vessel. Because our candles are made with clean coconut-soy wax, a full melt pool may take several burns to develop... and that's completely normal.
Quick Troubleshooting
Small flame? Trim the wick and remove excess char.
Soot or smoking? The wick may be too long or exposed to a draft.
Uneven burn? Extend your next burn session and move the candle away from airflow.
Reuse Your Vessel
Once approximately ½ inch of wax remains, it's time to retire your candle. Clean the vessel with hot water and mild soap, then repurpose it as a catch-all for brushes, pens, matches, cotton rounds, or other everyday essentials.
Hand-poured in small batches in Michigan, Applewood candles are crafted with clean, non-toxic ingredients and are always free from phthalates, parabens, Prop 65 chemicals, carcinogens, and other unnecessary toxins. Trim, tend and enjoy the quiet luxury of a safer, more beautiful burn.

Are your candles safe around pets?
Yes! Every Applewood candle is made with coconut-soy wax and clean fragrances... the same formula our founder's dog, Magnolia, naps next to every day. Both of her veterinarians have given Applewood their approval! We're not vets ourselves, so if your pet has specific sensitivities, it's always worth a quick check with yours too.
About Applewood Candle Co.
Applewood Candle Co. was born from a real story: our founder Allison's golden retriever, Magnolia, had severe allergies to traditional candles, so Allison created a new kind of luxury candle that's safe for the whole family, pets included!
Every Applewood candle is hand-poured in small batches in Metamora, Michigan, using coconut-soy wax, crackling wooden wicks, and clean fragrances. You should never have to choose between clean ingredients and a beautiful candle... that's our Applewood Standard!
