Hello, I’m Kerry, the founder of Can To Candle.

Can To Candle began nearly twelve years ago during a busy season of life, while I was raising my three young daughters. Like many parents, I wanted a career that would allow me to be there for school runs, sports days and all the little moments that matter, while still contributing to our family income. Starting a candle business from home gave me the flexibility I was looking for and the opportunity to build something of my own.

What began at my kitchen table has grown into an award-winning small business, with every candle still hand poured in small batches here in Scotland.

I’ve always believed that a beautiful candle should be something you enjoy lighting every day, not just save for special occasions. That’s why my aim has always been simple: create beautifully scented candles that look at home in any room, burn well, and are affordable enough to enjoy whenever you want.

Every candle is carefully tested to ensure it delivers the things that matter most to my customers: a strong, long-lasting fragrance and a beautiful, even burn. One of the reasons so many customers return is because the scent really fills a room, even when the candle isn’t right beside you.

I spend a great deal of time testing different wick and natural wax combinations to make sure my candles burn evenly with minimal tunnelling, so you get the full burn time from your candle instead of being left with wasted wax around the sides. It’s this attention to detail that means each candle not only smells wonderful but performs beautifully from the first light to the last.

As well as creating scented candles, I also teach candle making workshops and mentor people who dream of starting their own candle businesses. Sharing what I’ve learnt over the years is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

Over the years, Can To Candle has been featured in Country Living magazine and received Beauty Shortlist Awards, but the biggest achievement has been the wonderful community of customers who continue to support my small business. Many have been with me for years, buying gifts for loved ones or returning to stock up on their favourite fragrances, and I’m incredibly grateful for every single order.

Whether you’re looking for the perfect housewarming gift, a thoughtful personalised candle, or a fragrance to make your home feel warm and welcoming, I hope you’ll find something you love. And if you’re not sure which fragrance to choose, I’d love to help.

If you’d like first access to new fragrances, subscriber-only offers and a lifetime discount on full-price products, I’d love you to join my monthly newsletter here.

Thank you for supporting a small family business. Every purchase really does make a difference.
