 🧑🍳 What “Hand-Poured in Small Batches” Really Means — A Closer Look at Artisan Candle Crafting 

 

🕯️ Why “Hand-Poured” Is More Than Just a Label

In the world of clean-burning candles, how a candle is made matters just as much as what it’s made of. At Pinky Swear & Co., “hand-poured in small batches” isn’t marketing fluff — it’s the foundation of our candle philosophy.

Every Pinky Swear candle is made with:

  • Coconut soy wax — a sustainable, non-toxic alternative to paraffin
  • Natural wooden wicks — for a crackling, cozy ambiance
  • Phthalate-free fragrances — safe for your space and your senses 

And most importantly? Each one is poured by hand, in small batches, right here in Toronto.


🔍 What Does “Small Batch Candle Making” Actually Mean?

Unlike mass-produced candles from factories, small batch means:

  • Only 8 to 12 candles are poured at a time
  • Temperature, fragrance load, and wick placement are manually monitored
  • Quality checks are done at every step — no shortcuts, no compromises

This results in more consistent scent throw, better wax adhesion, and a longer, cleaner burn.


🌿 Why This Matters for Your Home & Health

Hand-poured, clean-burning candles are more than just beautiful — they’re safer too. Here’s how small-batch production benefits you:

  • Even fragrance distribution
  • No paraffin, dyes, or synthetic boosters
  • Less soot and smoke thanks to wooden wicks
  • Better burn performance with every light

It’s part of our commitment to sustainability, wellness, and better air quality in your home.


🌿 Our Signature Touch: The Wax Seal

Every full-size candle is finished with a hand-pressed wax seal — our signature detail.

🕯️ No two wax seals are the same.

Each one is uniquely imperfect, pressed by hand, and sealed with love. It’s a small act of craftsmanship that turns every candle into a one-of-a-kind gift — even if it’s just for yourself.


🇨🇦 Handmade in Toronto with Love

Pinky Swear & Co. proudly pours every candle by hand in our Toronto studio. We don’t outsource production — because we believe you should know who made your candle.

Each jar is:

  • Lovingly labeled
  • Carefully cleaned
  • Thoughtfully packaged — in eco-conscious, plastic-free shipping materials

✨ The Small Batch Difference You Can Smell

When you light a Pinky Swear candle, you’re not just burning wax — you’re experiencing intentional craftsmanship. From the creamy coconut soy wax to our scent curation process, everything is done in-house, in harmony, and with heart.
