Santa Monica Mornings hand poured eco-friendly soy candle | Kernowfornia Soul®

Our soy candles are made from 100% natural, renewable soy wax, a biodegradable alternative to paraffin. They're clean-burning as we only use fragrance oils which are free from Paraben's and Phthalates, and are hand poured with love to reduce environmental impact. We also use FSC® certified wooden wicks, and all our tins and packaging is fully recyclable.

Soy wax burns longer and cleaner than paraffin, producing less soot and toxins. It's a healthier choice for your home, family, and the planet.

Yes! Wooden wicks provide a beautiful crackling sound, a cleaner burn, and create a modern, rustic look. Plus, they come from FSC® certified wood sources for sustainability.

As soy wax burns slower than Paraffin wax it is better value for money. Our 250g tin soy scented candles burn for a minimum of 45 hours

Nope. We use phthalate-free fragrance oils and never include parabens, lead, or petroleum byproducts. We also use FSC® certified wooden wicks, as even some cotton wicks are actually coated in Paraffin wax to help them burn.

Wooden wicks need a bit of love! Always trim your wick (see our blog post on how to look after your wooden wick candle, and you will also receive a wooden wick care card in your delivery)

To Avoid tunnelling you need to let the candle burn long enough to create an even melt pool (simply means let the wax melt from one side of the tin to the other)

Candles have a "memory" so the first burn is important.

Yes, our packaging is recyclable, biodegradable, or reusable, because sustainability matters at every step. We recommend you clean out and re-use your tins, they make wonderful plant pots.

We donate a proportion of ever candle sold to our Kelp projects. Why is kelp so important? Kelp is an 'ecosystem engineer'. This is a very fancy way of saying that kelp takes greenhouse gasses (GHG) out of the atmosphere, where those  GHGs are then 'fixed' into organic carbon in the ocean to create the crucial kelp structure. This is crucial because the kelp structure provides an important habitat of many juvenile marine animals, and enhances water quality. So kelp can reduce impacts from climate change, enhance biodiversity and improve water quality. This is why we love kelp!

From beach coconut to cozy gingerbread and refreshing desert cactus or coastal cypress, our scent lineup is Cornish and Californian inspired and free from harmful additives.

All our candles are hand-poured in small batches right here in Cornwall using ethically sourced ingredients.
