How to use
Pumpkin Pie Delight is a 10 oz dessert jar with a tall whipped wax top. These steps help the whipped top melt evenly and keep the soft sandalwood base clear.
- Give the first lighting two to three hours. The tall whipped top must melt down and the pool must spread from edge to edge.
- As the top softens, a wax pumpkin can move toward the flame. If this happens, put the candle out, let the wax set, and remove the piece.
- Before each lighting, trim the wick to a length of 6 mm.
- Use it in a living room or at a fall dinner, on a flat, heat-safe surface.
- Do not keep it lit for more than four hours at one time.
- Stay with the candle while it burns, and make sure small children and pets cannot get to it.
- The whipped top, pumpkins, pie and leaves are wax, not food. When 1 cm of wax is left at the bottom, stop and clean the jar for use as a small planter.

Frequently asked questions
What does Pumpkin Pie Delight smell like?
Nutmeg and whipped cream at the top, soft pumpkin and cashmere musk in the middle, amber woods and sandalwood at the base.
Does it smell like a baked pumpkin pie?
It is softer than a baked pie, with less spice and more cream and wood. For a pie scent with cinnamon and clove, choose Pumpkin Glow.
How is it different from Pumpkin Glow?
Pumpkin Glow is a 5 oz jar with a spiced pie scent. Pumpkin Pie Delight is a 10 oz dessert jar with a creamy, musky pumpkin scent and a piped whipped top.
Is the topping real food?
No. The whipped top is wax piped by hand. The pumpkins, the pie and the leaves are moulded wax. Nothing on this candle is food.
Is it a good Thanksgiving centrepiece?
Yes. It is the largest candle in the fall range, and the pumpkins and pie on top show from every side of the table.
How long does a 10 oz Pumpkin Pie Delight burn?
About 45 to 55 hours, when you burn it in sessions of up to four hours.
