Handcrafted Dessert and Mithai Scented Candles
Looking at these, you'll want a spoon, but please use a matchstick instead! Hand-poured candles that look exactly like your favorite mithai and desserts, scented to match.
This Diwali, gift a box of sweetness that lasts. This video shows the making of my Mithai Candle Gift Box, designed to look just like Motichoor Ladoo, Jalebi, and other Indian sweets.

About Sweet Cravings: Dessert & Mithai Candles
The biggest challenge with these isn't the crafting, but getting the scent profile just right. If it looks like a Motichoor Ladoo or a Strawberry Cheesecake, it has to smell like it too, without any artificial chemical undertones. I use a high-quality soy wax blend that holds the fragrance perfectly, so when you light a cake or mithai candle, your room fills with that warm, authentic aroma.
I started making these because I wanted gifting to be more than just formality. We all get bored of the same socks and sweets, right? My dessert and mithai candle collection is my way of flipping the script on traditional gifting. Whether it is a box of 'Motichoor Ladoo' candles for Diwali or a 'Birthday in a Jar' candle to cure post-birthday blues, these are designed to spark conversations and bring a smile to anyone's face.
Each piece is hand-poured in my workshop. For the mithai range, I focus on the tiny details—the silver 'vark' finish on a Kaju Katli or the rich texture of a Gulab Jamun—making them look almost too real to light. But please, resist the urge to eat them! The scent profiles are curated to be gourmand and inviting. For the bakery-style candles, I layer the wax to mimic sponge and frosting, topping them with wax donuts, sprinkles, or hearts to get that perfect aesthetic.
These are not just for display. They function as high-performance candles that throw fragrance across a room. They make excellent return favors for kid's parties, baby showers, or as a unique festive addition to your home mandir or center table. If you are looking for something specific, like a personalized message hidden in the wax or a custom color palette for a corporate event, just reach out. I love working on custom orders, and I can help you create a hamper that fits your vibe and budget perfectly.
