🕯 The Story of Sydney Candle

Sydney Candle began in 2006 in the basement of Becki’s home—just a father and daughter with a shared love for candles and a dream of doing something meaningful together.

In the early days, Becki and her dad, Richard, started by buying candles at wholesale and reselling them. But it wasn’t long before Richard, retired and full of ideas, had a better one: “What if we made our own… but better?” Candles crafted with higher quality ingredients, made to perform beautifully, and safe for everyone to enjoy.

So, with a crock pot, a few mason jars, and some hand-assembled wicks, they got to work. The first batches were melted, poured, and packaged by hand—each one infused with cozy, homey scents and wrapped in simple, heartfelt packaging. They shared them with friends, family, and eventually, local mom-and-pop shops who quickly fell in love.

And the name? That came straight from the heart. Sydney Candle was named after Becki’s first daughter—Richard’s first grandchild. A name that reminds us, always, of the love and family at the center of everything we do.

That was the start of Sydney Candle.

What began in a basement has now made its way into thousands of homes across every state in the U.S. But even with all that growth, some things haven’t changed—we’re still a family-owned and operated business based in Cortland, Ohio, hand-pouring candles with care and staying true to the heart of how we started.

Thanks for being part of our story. We’re so glad you’re here!

Superior quality and performance with a fragrance that is unmatched.

Pure soy candles burn at a lower temperature than traditional paraffin wax allowing for a longer burn time. And when it comes to fragrance, Sydney Candles are unmatched! Why? Because we only use high quality fragrances that have been tested to blend well with our wax. We also infuse each candle with the maximum allowable fragrance oil resulting in the superior aroma of our product. Our wicks are constructed of 100% cotton, keeping them free of lead, zinc or any other type of alloy metal. For quality craftsmanship and superior performance.
