OUR STORY
THE BRAND
When I first started researching candle-making, I was shocked to learn just how many chemicals and toxins are found in so many store-bought candles. I couldn’t believe I had been burning those in my home and exposing myself, my kids, and even our pets to them. That moment pushed me to find a safer way to enjoy candles without compromising the warmth and comfort they bring.
I dove deep into learning about the cleanest waxes and wicks available. That’s why I chose all-natural soy wax and hemp wicks. Hemp wicks provide a clean, even burn that doesn’t interfere with the scent, and soy wax burns longer and cleaner than traditional paraffin. Both are completely safe for every member of the family & pets included.
I also created a Bring Back Your Jar program to help reduce waste. When you return your finished candle jar, you’ll receive a credit toward your next purchase. It’s rewarding for you, and it’s kind to the earth something that’s always been important to me.
My passion for this business grew even more when I left work on medical leave. That time allowed me to expand my scent collection, experiment with new ideas, and fully pour myself into creating products that I truly believe in.
THE MAKER
My name is April, and I’m the owner of Golden Flamez Candles!
I’m a mom based in Ontario, and candles have always been a huge part of my life.
I started this company because of my love for candles but once I began researching, I discovered how toxic and harmful many popular candles can be. I couldn’t believe I had been burning those in my home around my children and pets. I knew I wanted to create something safer.
Golden Flamez Candles officially launched in November 2020, though the idea started years before. My passion for candles was so strong that I was spending hundreds of dollars every few months at big box stores, and I wanted something better with cleaner ingredients, better scents, and products I could trust.
This passion has grown into creating high-quality, hand-poured soy candles that I am truly proud to share with you. I’m always open to new scent ideas and product suggestions to give customers exactly what they’re looking for.
Thank you so much for supporting small businesses. It means the world. 🤍
