Atelier Bougies Parfumées

Dear valued customers,

Our final date for workshops this year will be November 5th as we close our workshop space for the Distillery District's Winter Village. We will resume workshops mid-January in the new year. Workshops for the new year are now available to be booked, as well as gift certificates.


Do you love scented candles?
Do you have a passion for DIY projects?
Do you get a rush learning new skills in a social environment?

Yummi Candles is now pleased to offer you our newly reformatted Scented Candle Making Workshop!

Be inspired in our historic Distillery District candle studio location, surrounded by hundreds of candles and home fragrance products.

During the workshop, our expert chandlers will guide you in creating your very own scented candles by picking up to eight fragrances from our specially curated fragrance catalogue. You will learn how to expertly combine your chosen fragrances with our proprietary blend of plant based waxes and wicks. Your instructor will ensure that you produce your candles to the standards of Yummi excellence. You will also have the opportunity to customize your candle label for yourself or as a special gift. Learn valuable tips and insider information on candle safety, burning tips and gain comprehensive knowledge of candle-making techniques and materials.

Our classes will take you on an olfactory adventure across top, middle, and base notes from our premium candle fragrances and allow you to discover what it takes to become an astute chandler.

Duration: 1.5-2 hours

Each participant will be provided with all the required candle making material and equipment. However, see the "Come Prepared" section for recommendations on attire.

Individual participants will make two 7oz scented candle jars and six 2oz scented votive candle jars. Participants are also eligible for a 25% discount on store merchandise on the day of their booking. Some limitations apply. See store for details.

By the end of the workshop, your candles may still be in a semi-solid state and will need time to cool in this case. Our new proprietary blend should take no more than an hour to solidify in the larger 7oz candle jar, so it is a great time to explore the retail side of the shop and take advantage of your included discount! Delivery of your workshop candles is available for a nominal fee. Ask a store associate for details.

Should you book a workshop and begin experiencing any of the above symptoms, we will be more than happy to reschedule you for a date that you are feeling better. For your safety, protection, and convenience, masks must be worn. Aprons and gloves will be provided during the workshop. For everyone's safety, please remember that your mask must be worn on your nose and mouth at all times. Please rest assured that this will not impede your sensory experience as the fragrance notes are powerful enough to permeate the mask.

We also recommend that those with long hair to bring a tie/elastic to protect both hair and candles.
