This Nika’s Home Black Raspberry and Vanilla soy candle is a hand-poured 12 oz mason jar candle made from natural soy wax and a cotton wick. The mason jar format burns cleanly for 40 to 50 hours without the soot or petrochemical smell of paraffin candles — the kind of candle that reads as handmade rather than mass-produced.
A layered scent combining fruity black raspberry top notes with warm vanilla base — works as a feminine, everyday fragrance in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living rooms without the heaviness of pure dessert candles. Trim the cotton wick to a quarter inch before each lighting to prevent tunneling, and let the wax pool fully across the jar on the first burn so the candle burns evenly down through its life.
Nika’s Home candles are hand-poured in the United States in small batches — a small American chandler using natural soy wax, cotton wicks, and fragrance blends poured into classic mason jars. Soy burns cooler than paraffin, and the mason jar format gives the candle a handmade, Americana character that mass-produced candles can’t replicate.
