Waxy Temptations

I have been making my own for a couple of weeks now. So far, I have only made French Vanilla, Cinnamon and last night I made Monkey Farts. Monkey Farts is banannas with bubble gum mixed in. Its kinda fun scent. I haven't burned it yet, though. I have a chocolate hazelnut candle that I love. I kind of burn it every now and then. The company that made it, went out of business and I don't want to run out of it. I have also tried baked apple pie and have to say that is one of my favorites. But the nice thing about the food scents, you can smell it when you are craving. Then you can go eat something healthy instead. Or at least that is what I keep telling myself.

LOL I bought a Chocolate Chip Cookies one for my brother for Christmas and he says it's a love/hate relationship...he loves the smell of it but it makes him hungry. I like the Vanilla, the Apple Pie and the Gingerbread ones...those are the only ones I've tried. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

Hi Phaedra, Oh Yummy!! Have you been around the Blueberry Cheesecake. It is awesome too!! Isn't it amazing how many scents are designed from food smells? I've noticed that too. This does not really help someone that is trying to lose weight. It is tempting enough to eat. The coffee one smells so rich and pleasant, it's like a fresh pot of coffee being brewed. There are so many different scents used for candles, it is hard to find something you could handle all day. Personally, I prefer the fresh, clean smelling ones. Even vanilla can be overwhelming sometimes. Have a nice day..

No, it isn't you. They are making more and more scented candles that smell like heavenly foods. It is working for them because everyone seems to like them. I know what you mean about some of them smelling so much like the real thing it makes me hungry. They say that the smell of certain foods, like chocolate, makes our brains produce more good feel hormones so I guess that is why the candle companies are making more and more scented candles that smell like food, not just flowery anymore. Alrighty then, talk to you later my friend, Have a good mylotting day, Chris

Candle scents are very much in today. Incorporating the scents in to a candle is a very clever and great idea. I don't like candles with food scents for obvious reason. I like candles that smell like perfumes.
