Crafted with love and apple-y aplomb by Jodi at Huckleberry Hives! Jodi thought it would be fitting to honor this old apple in candle form so she made a mold using a real lady apple from Silver Creek Nursery!

  • pure beeswax candle, colours created with candle dye
  • candle size: 3.8cm wide by 2.5cm tall (1.5" x 1")
  • approximate burn time 15 hours

🍎The Lady apple is synonymous with holidays and has a long history of use for decorating trees (ornaments or garlands) as well as use in wreath making.
🍎It is also known as Pomme d'Api - the oldest recognized apple variety under that name - originally documented during early Rome under Etruscan rule, around 700BC!!
🍎The first time it was called Lady was during the French Renaissance in 1628, and it became naturalized in America during the 1800's.

These candles can also be purchased with specialty greeting tags for teacher gifts, romantic gifts or wedding favours:

  • "I'd apple-y be in your class forever."
  • "You are the apple of my eye." 
  • "I'd apple-y be yours forever."
  • "Appley ever after."
