Product Information
Full details
The Candlelight Strawberry Jar Candle is an ideal choice for home décor enthusiasts and fragrance lovers who want to add a playful, whimsical touch to their living space. Its primary benefit is the combination of a charming, durable ceramic aesthetic with a bright, uplifting strawberry scent that fills the room without becoming cloying. While it provides excellent ambiance, users should note that the ceramic vessel is opaque, meaning the glow of the flame is contained within the jar rather than projecting light outwards through the glass.

FAQs
Can I put the ceramic jar in the dishwasher?
While the ceramic is durable, it is recommended to hand wash the jar with mild soap and water to preserve the finish and structural integrity.
How long should I burn the candle at one time?
It is best not to burn the candle for more than 4 hours at a time to ensure safety and prevent the container from becoming too hot.
Is the scent very strong?
The strawberry fragrance is designed to be fresh and uplifting; it is noticeable and pleasant without being overpowering or heavy.
Can I use the jar for food after cleaning?
It is recommended to use the repurposed jar for non-food items like pens, clips, or small decorative trinkets.
What should I do if the wick gets buried in the wax?
Use a pair of tweezers or a dedicated wick tool to gently pull the wick back up while the wax is still slightly soft, or carefully scrape away a small amount of wax surrounding the wick.
Troubleshooting
The candle is 'tunneling' (burning straight down the middle)
During the next burn, ensure the candle stays lit for 2-3 hours until the entire top surface of the wax becomes liquid.
The flame is too high or flickering excessively
Extinguish the candle, let it cool completely, and trim the wick to about 5mm before relighting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Place the candle on a heat-resistant, level surface away from drafts, curtains, or flammable materials to ensure safety. To maintain the integrity of the ceramic vessel, avoid sudden temperature changes, such as placing a hot candle directly onto a cold surface. When you are ready to repurpose the jar, carefully scoop out any remaining wax, gently wash with warm soapy water, and remove any leftover adhesive from the wick base. The neutral white colour is highly compatible with minimalist, farmhouse, or modern interior design themes.
