Bento Cake Candle

A bento cake candle is a charming, mini candle sculpted to look like an adorable petite cake—complete with piped “frosting,” wax “drips,” floral details, or even a faux fruit topping.  It’s presented in a small box, like a Korean-style bento cake, making it both decorative and gift-ready.

✨ Why it’s special:

• Aesthetic & Instagram-worthy: These little “cakes” are all about visual delight—pastel tones, realistic frosting details, and camera-ready looks .

• Eco-luxury: Often hand-poured using soy wax (sometimes blended with beeswax), and scented with gentle fragrance oils—eco-conscious without sacrificing beauty 

• Keepsake quality: After burning, they remain a decorative piece or an artful keepsake.

📏 Typical Specs

• Size: Compact—around 8–10 cm diameter and 4–6 cm high, ideal for desks or shelves. 

• Weight: 175 g of wax, depending on size .

• Burn Time: Ranges from ~4 hours for smaller pieces, to ~25 hours for larger, Mother’s‑Day-style candles .

🎁 Fragrance & Design Options

• Scents: From fresh white tea and lavender to rich chocolate or fruity peach blossoms.

• Looks: Can include wax “flowers,” drip effects, sprinkles—some even mimic fruit or pastry details.
