Why Cookie Candles?

Convenience

Need to personalise a cake? From the grocery store, your own baked masterpiece, or a professional baker- every cake can be elevated with our unique Cookie Candle creations! It's a cake decoration, but it's also the candle! We've combined two products needed for your cake and baked them into one. They can even be put directly into ice-cream, or lasagne if you like. You do you.

No need to make your own cake decorations to suit the theme, or purchase something generic from overseas. If you only need it for one day, you may as well eat it afterwards!

Wow factor

Cookie Candles are literally one of a kind! Never been done before, never been seen before. Our Cookie Candles are patent pending to prove it. Not only do we combine convenience with deliciousness, we also give the gift of a birthday to remember. I mean, how often do you see people lighting and then eating their birthday candle?

Whether it's the 'cherry on top' or an absolute show stopper, we thoughtfully handmake each and every Cookie Candle with love . We guarantee smiles and to blow at least a mind or two.

A gift of love

Here at Cookie Candles we value JOY and FUN! But above everything, we value individuality. We help people feel seen, understood , valued and celebrated for exactly who they are - at least for one day.

Everyone has special interests, hobbies, passions, favourite colours, tv shows and things that bring them happiness. We use those to craft the perfect gift for the day that means the most to them. Nothing makes you feel more celebrated than seeing your favourite thing on the top of your birthday cake!

Save the planet

Let's face it, you either store away and attempt to re-use birthday candles (with good intentions), or throw them in the bin after a single use. Wouldn't it be better if you could eat it? Obviously, yes! With Cookie Candles, we leave nothing behind except a giant smile and a core memory. Well, maybe a few crumbs and a slightly elevated blood sugar level...

Say goodbye to 'half melted-stashed-away-for-next-year...maybe?' birthday candles cluttering up your cupboard. Cookie Candles are a unique and consumable way to mark the occasion with zero paraffin wax wasting away in landfill or taking up room in your cupboard.

How do I store my Cookie Candle?

Cookie Candles need to be stored in a cool, dark and dry place such as a pantry or cupboard. They CANNOT go into the fridge, however they can be stored in the freezer for several months until you need them. Simply defrost in the original packaging a couple of hours before you need it. Once the packaging is opened, they stay fresh around a week. Cookie Candles generally have a shelf life of around 6 weeks, they are still safe to eat after this but may lose their freshness and nutritional content.

Are Cookie Candle’s safe?

Absolutely! Even the wick's 'wax' is food, so all elements are food safe. Cookie Candles are safe to consume once the wick and stick have been removed and discarded. Always supervise young children around Cookie Candles. The wicks and decorations (such as sprinkles) may pose a choking hazard, particularly to children under 3. Trust your child with a Cookie Candle as you would trust them with a lit birthday candle.

Are Cookie Candles eco-friendly? How are they packaged?

Absolutely! Unlike traditional birthday candles, Cookie Candles contain zero paraffin wax, and they end up in your tummy or compost bin - rather than landfill.

We also pack our Cookie Candles in the most eco-friendly way possible, while still keeping maximum freshness.

Please let us know in the cart notes if your order is a gift for someone as we can adjust packaging to suit, it's prettier however it will be less eco-friendly.
