Our Commitment to Clean Ingredients

At Bread & Butter Home, we believe what fills your home should feel just as good as it smells. Every candle we create is thoughtfully crafted using clean, high-quality ingredients — because atmosphere matters, and so does what you’re burning in your space.

Our process is intentional from start to finish, using materials we trust and would proudly burn in our own homes.

Natural Premium Soy Wax

We use natural, premium soy wax as the foundation of every Bread & Butter Home candle. Unlike paraffin wax, which is petroleum-based and commonly found in mass-produced candles, soy wax is a natural, renewable resource that burns cleanly and evenly.

Our soy wax burns slowly and evenly, creating a longer-lasting candle with a warm, well-balanced scent throw that’s present, comforting, and designed to be enjoyed throughout your home — never harsh, never overwhelming.

Thoughtfully Curated, Phthalate-Free Fragrances

Scent is powerful — it shapes mood, memory, and the feeling of a space. That’s why every Bread & Butter Home candle is made using phthalate-free fragrance oils that meet strict safety standards for candle use.

Each fragrance is carefully selected to feel warm, familiar, and elevated — never harsh or artificial. By choosing phthalate-free oils, we create candles you can enjoy with confidence in the spaces that matter most.

Lead- & Zinc-Free Cotton Wicks

All of our candles are finished with lead- and zinc-free cotton wicks, ensuring a cleaner burn and helping minimize soot. It’s a small detail, but one that makes a meaningful difference in the quality and safety of the candle.

Why Ingredient Quality Matters

Many conventional candles may contain materials that fall into one or more of the following hazard groups:

Carcinogens — substances known to cause cancer
Mutagens — materials that can alter DNA and damage cells
Reproductive toxins — chemicals linked to fertility issues and birth defects
Organ toxins — substances that negatively impact specific bodily organs
Acute toxins — compounds that may cause harm from a single exposure

This is why we choose differently.

Hand-Poured for the Heart of Your Home

Each candle is hand-poured in small batches with care and intention. Bread & Butter Home was created to shape atmosphere — to support slow mornings with coffee, quiet evenings at home, and the everyday rituals that make a house feel lived in and loved.

When you light a Bread & Butter Home candle, you’re choosing more than a scent. You’re choosing clean ingredients, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a product made with purpose.
