Handmade Beeswax Candles

Handmade beeswax candles from Burlington, Ontario: wood-wick jar candles that crackle like a campfire, decorated pillars and wax melts, made in small batches.

Northportage Craft is a small, locally owned candle maker in Burlington, Ontario. Every candle is made by hand, individually and in small batches, so they sell fast and are always fresh.

It started with one aim: to make the best candle possible. One that brings the campfire indoors, with the amber glow and soft crackle of a wooden wick. One made with only pure, high-quality ingredients. And one that gives the best possible burn, steady and even, right to the end.

What goes into them:

  • Raw Alberta beeswax
  • Genuine Lumetique wooden wicks (authentic and patented), which crackle softly as they burn
  • Clean organic essential oils and fragrance oils, free of parabens, phthalates, Lyral and Lilial
  • Amber glass jars that glow like embers
  • A recipe tested for a beautiful flame and an even melt from edge to edge, so the last hour of a candle is as good as the first

Even customers who are sensitive to scents have raved about the quality. For anyone avoiding fragrance altogether, there's Natural: unscented, so only the beeswax's own soft honey note comes through.
