A Little More About Kween Bee Candle Co.
Hi, I’m Karrie! Owner of Kween Bee Candle Co.
Kween Bee Candle Co. was started as a dream to make candles for my own personal use. I used to buy the mainstream ones & noticed that after burning them, they would leave black soot on my walls, along with an unnatural smell. As a person with multiple allergies, I wanted something that is a healthy, clean-burning, wonderfully smelling alternative. I searched high & low at all the different waxes & wax blends out there.
The final decision was beeswax, but which one? White wax or yellow wax? Do I blend it myself or have it blended for me? After many hits & misses, I decided to use a beeswax blend. It is a blend of a proprietary combination of ethically sourced beeswax, and renewably coconut, soy, and RSPO palm waxes. It has all the benefits of strict beeswax.
Many of my family & friends asked if I would be selling them. Honestly, selling wasn’t my initial intent After much consideration, I said yes to creating these healthy, clean-burning candles.
My love for the Farmhouse look is the look I wanted, something simple. I do not add color to my candles but can be added for custom pours.
Kween Bee Candle Co. is a woman-owned company located in Northern Nevada. All my candles are individually poured in small batches. I can do custom pours, add color, certain fragrances, or use special vessels (as long as they can withstand the heat of the candle) for an additional fee.

Pure beeswax is a renewable resource. Beeswax candles can produce a bright, white light (in the same spectrum as sunlight). They are also drip-less and clean burning.
A natural clean light honey fragrance will be present in unscented candles.

Beeswax costs more since the wax is only made by honeybees & the supply is limited.
Honeybees produce wax from the glands on their bodies. It requires a lot of energy. The more wax in a hive, the less honey there is. For every 1-2 pounds of wax, the bees lose around 6 pounds of honey. Hence, beeswax candles cost more to create than their counterparts, soy & paraffin.
