We’ve been waxing lyrical about these pastry candles since they first caught our hungry eyes. The Italian, family-run wax laboratory began in 1840, with a focus on producing church candles. As the years have gone by, they now create intricate, handcrafted food-inspired pieces, ranging from cannoli to croissants. The focus on quality matches the detailed design: the wax is the same as that used in the food industry, and the wicks are made of smoke-absorbent pure cotton.
