Toledo Food Co-op stocking candles

That's right, Toledo Natural Food Co-op is stocking Pure Soy Candles.  Now you can purchase local soy candles made with care at a local store with regular hours. What's better?  A portion of the proceeds with be donated to the co-op, so by buying the candles through the co-op instead of directly you will be supporting both the co-op and Pure Soy.  Candle prices will remain the same at $6 for the 8ox jelly jars and tins.  Even better, I will be running a special through the co-op.  5 candles are just $25, that's $5 a candle instead of $6.

Grapefruit Mangosteen

Scent Profile: Grapefruit Mangosteen

Manufacturer description:  true-to-life blend of ripe, tangy grapefruit and mangosteen- an exotic fruit that is citrusy and sweet with a hint of peach.
The fragrance reaches balance while burning, when both fruits meld into a strong fragrance that has a citrus punch, a hint of peach, and a naturally derived sweetness.

I find the scent to be uplifting and refreshing.  The citrus is prominent and is balanced with a nice juicy-sweetness.  It has a fresh, fruit smell but is not overwhelmingly sweet and doesn't smell artificial like some fruit candles can. 

For this batch I choose to dye the candles pink.
