Happy Soul Candles is a small candle-making business located in Oakland, CA producing environmentally responsible products. All candles are made with all-natural soy wax, premium fragrance oil, and cotton wicks which are lead and zinc free. Soy wax is non-toxic, eco-friendly, biodegradable, renewable, sustainable, and American grown. Soy wax candles burn clean and slowly. Soy wax has a natural characteristic that sometimes may look like it's frosted. This is normal and does not affect the performance or fragrance of your candles. Candles are hand poured in small batches with a happy heart.
