Our goal is to create eco-friendly candles that smell fantastic.

After doing some research, we learned how harmful certain wax types can be. We were tired of buying unhealthy, expensive candles that overpowered any room they burned in.

We decided to make the most eco-friendly candles possible and aim to improve them continuously. Honey Bear Candles was started to offer a sustainable, non-toxic alternative for candle lovers.

Why Buy Honey Bear Candles? And Why Beeswax?

Our beeswax is sourced from US farmers that raise their bees ethically, and the beeswax is a sustainable source of wax. Harvesting beeswax rarely harms bees, promotes pollination, and boosts ecosystems.

There are many reasons why our candles are a great option, find more information in the dropdown!

  • Bees are known pollinators, and they are food for predators, making beekeeping the perfect option for a sustainable wax.

    As science has shown, beekeeping promotes healthy ecosystems both domestic and wild.

  • Many sites claim that beeswax purifies the air. We are not scientists; however, it has been proven that beeswax produces less toxic pollutants when burned compared to other waxes.

  • In addition to the benefits of supporting beekeepers, there are many reasons to choose a sustainable candle.

    Our labels are made of recycled paper, and our jars (and lids) are both re-useable and recyclable. Our candles are made from minimally processed beeswax, significantly decreasing environmental impact from our production process.

    It’s easy to re-use the jars for whatever you need, or recycle them!
