Who we are
At CandleCup, we create handmade scented candles poured into reusable mugs because we believe sustainability can be both stylish and practical. We exclusively use ecological ingredients in our candles. Additionally, our candles do not have harmful ingredients, so our candles are completely safe to use inside your home. Instead of throwing containers away, we allow you to give them a second life; every CandleCup can continue being used as a mug long after the candle has burned out.
We care about recycling, reducing waste, and creating products that feel warm, cozy, and environmentally friendly.
