The Cinnamon Strudel Candle from the Darkest Tale of Winter
From the darkest shadows of Western Europe comes a tale of the demon of Christmas: the Krampus, a horned monster, rattling loud chains and whips, that drags naughty children into the Underworld. Every year, on December 5th, people dress up as this terrifying creature and playfully chase others though the streets.
Krampusnacht by Hex and Wax Candle Company is a nod to this Western European tradition with mouthwatering notes of cinnamon strudel, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Light the wick and let the old traditions and familiar scents play.

How to use a wooden wick
How to use a wooden wick
Always trim your wood wick before relighting your candle. When a wick becomes too charred, it can prevent the flame from burning properly. Simply clip or pinch off the blackened wood using a trimmer, nail clippers, or tissue to keep your candle burning smoothly.

Candle Care
Wick Care:
Before every use, trim your wood wick down to roughly ¼ inch. Remove any leftover charred bits from the last burn with a trimmer or tissue. If your candle won’t stay lit, it’s usually because the wick needs trimming.
Burn Time:
During the first burn, allow the wax to melt completely to the edges of the jar. This takes around 2–4 hours. To maintain quality and prevent overheating, avoid burning for more than 4 hours at a time.
Safety First:
Always keep candles within sight while burning. Protect them from wind, fans, or vibrations, and never place them near items that could ignite. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Best By:
Use your candle within two years for optimal fragrance and performance.
