A whimsical tea, a curious bite of marzipan, and a wink of honey 🍵
Mad Tea Party opens with the rich aroma of steeping black tea, drifts through golden honeycomb, and finishes with the soft, almond-y sweetness of marzipan. It's the candle equivalent of an afternoon tea where the rules don't quite apply — curious, comforting, and impossibly charming.
Hand-poured into our signature 100% Spanish recycled glass (yes, it's dishwasher safe!), this luxury Rocks Candle brings playful, gentle energy to your space — perfect for reading nooks, tea time, gift-giving, and any moment that's a little bit story-book.
Each candle is topped with a purposeful gemstone to amplify the energy of this scent:

♻️ Sustainability & Care
Vessel lives on as a rocks glass, planter, or trinket holder. Snap the charred top off your wooden wick with your fingers before each burn (when the candle is cool) — no trimmer required, we hate fussy too. Allow a full melt pool on the first burn for best performance. Always burn on a heat-safe surface away from drafts.

Care & Burn Tips
For the best candle experience:
- Let the wax melt fully to the edges on your first burn — this prevents tunneling. Your candle will thank you.
- Snap the charred top off your wooden wick before each burn. No trimmer required, just your fingers and a cool candle.
- Keep the candle free of anything that's not wick or wax. Rule of thumb: if you wouldn't eat it, don't burn it.
- Don't burn for more than 4 hours at a stretch — give it a rest.
- Stop using when only 1/4" of wax remains. (We know, parting is such sweet sorrow.)
Heads up: wood wicks can be drama queens on the first light — sometimes it takes a few tries. A butane mini-torch lighter is your best friend here. Patience pays off.
Cleaning & Reuse Instructions
Transform your Rocks Candle into a stylish drinking glass with these simple steps:
- Allow the Candle to Cool: Ensure the candle wax has completely cooled and solidified before attempting to remove it.
- Remove Excess Wax: Gently scrape off as much of the leftover wax as possible using a spoon or butter knife. Be careful not to scratch the glass.
- Fill a Bowl with Hot Water: Place the candle glass in the bowl (careful not to get water in the glass) to soften the wax. Wipe with a paper towel.
- Clean with Hot Soapy Water: Fill the glass with hot, soapy water and let it sit for a few minutes.
- Wipe Clean: Use a sponge or cloth to wipe away any remaining wax residue.
- Dishwasher Safe: Once the wax is completely removed, you can place the glass in the dishwasher for a thorough cleaning.
Enjoy your new, eco-friendly drinking glass! Perfect for adding a touch of elegance to your beverage collection.
