Let customers speak for us
from 10 reviewsI discovered this candle maker at Xmas Home Show, London Olympia. Beautiful scent for holidays season, burn nicely no tunnelling problem at all. Good pairing with Enchanted Forest candle. Highly recommended x
I absolutely love the Discovery Candle Set! I got Moonlit Grove, Cinnamon Bun, and Whispers of Rosewood – and honestly, they’re all divine. Each candle has its own unique vibe: Moonlit Grove is calming and fresh, Cinnamon Bun is sweet and cosy, and Whispers of Rosewood feels warm and luxurious. The scents fill the room beautifully without being overpowering, and the burn time is great too. It’s such a lovely way to try different fragrances, and it would make the perfect gift… although I’m keeping this one for myself!
The Whispers of Rosewood candle is honestly beautiful. The mix of sandalwood and rose is warm, soft, and a little bit fancy without feeling over the top. It makes the whole room feel calm and inviting, and the scent hangs around in the nicest way. If you like rose but want something deeper and cosier, this is perfect.
The Cinnamon Swirl Candle is an absolute treat for the senses. The moment it’s lit, the comforting aroma of freshly baked cinnamon buns fills the room, wrapping you in a warm, homely embrace. It’s sweet, indulgent, and inviting, instantly creating a cosy atmosphere. The soy wax burns evenly, releasing the bakery-fresh scent for hours. Whether it’s a chilly winter evening or you just want to bring a little festive magic into your home, this candle delivers pure comfort in a jar.
The Moonlit Grove candle is pure magic. From the moment I lit it, the blend of cedarwood, lavender, ylang ylang, and lemon verbena filled my home with the most calming scent. It’s the kind of fragrance that melts away the stress of the day. The burn is clean and even, and the aroma lingers beautifully without being overpowering. I’ve started using it during my evening wind-down, and it’s transformed my self-care routine into something truly special. If you’re looking for a candle that feels like a gentle escape from the chaos, this is it.
This candle smells amazing, earthy, fresh & slightly sweet – beautifully packaged and long-lasting, Uma is a genius!
This candle is one of the best I have ever had! It has a lovely natural smell that fills the whole room! I burn the candle every night for hours and it lasts me what feels like forever. It’s such a soft scent that doesn’t smell synthetic and really feels like a very natural candle!
Every time I walk in when this candle is burning I comment on its loveliness. As a self confessed candle snob it takes a lot to get my attention and this candle is DIVINE. It makes me feel… warm, cosy, and, well, happy! Very different to any others I’ve had. I’ve now bought others in the range and sent as gifts to friends. When you find something a bit special, you share it! Also, the burn quality and time are as good as I’ve ever had. No funneling, no horrible soot. Hurrah!
Love the smell of the strawberry crumble candle. Not too strong that it feels like it’s invading my personal space but sweet enough that it brings a smile to my face. I’ve been burning it for days now and I’m not even half way through the candle. Will definitely get another one once my current one runs out.
I absolutely love these candles. The scent is warm and sweet but not sickly, and it fills the house. They burn evenly and cleanly, not sticking to the edges of the jar. I’ve tried many different room scents but this is my hands down favourite for quality and longevity. Worth every penny.
FAQs
How long does a Fair Cake Candles reed diffuser last?
Our 100ml reed diffusers typically last between 3 and 4 months, depending on the room temperature, airflow, and how often you flip the reeds. Warmer rooms and frequent reed flipping will release more fragrance but shorten the lifespan, while cooler, less draughty spaces will help the scent last longer.
How do I use a reed diffuser?
Remove the stopper from the glass bottle and insert the reeds into the oil, spreading them out in a fan shape. Allow a few hours for the oil to travel up the reeds before the fragrance begins to diffuse. To refresh the scent, simply flip the reeds every 1–2 weeks — just be sure to wipe any drips and wash your hands after handling.
Where should I place my reed diffuser?
For the best results, place your diffuser in a room with good airflow, such as a hallway, living room, or bathroom, where the scent can circulate naturally. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, near radiators, or on polished or painted surfaces, as the oil can damage finishes if spilled. A coaster or tray underneath is always a good idea.
Are your reed diffusers made with natural ingredients?
Yes. Each reed diffuser is hand-poured in our Brighton studio using high-quality fragrance oils and essential oils, in keeping with the clean, non-toxic approach we take across the Fair Cake Candles range. They're vegan-friendly and never tested on animals.
What's the difference between a reed diffuser, a candle, and a wax melt?
A reed diffuser provides a subtle, continuous fragrance with no flame — ideal for rooms where you want a steady background scent. A candle offers a warm glow alongside its fragrance and is perfect for creating a cosy atmosphere. Wax melts are flameless pieces of scented wax that are melted on a burner using a tea light, giving you a stronger, customisable scent throw and the flexibility to switch fragrances whenever you like.
How do I use the Wax Melt Burner?
Place one or two wax melts in the top dish of the burner, then light a standard tea light in the compartment below. As the tea light warms the dish, the wax will gently melt and release its fragrance throughout the room. Once the scent fades, allow the wax to cool and harden, then pop it out and replace with fresh melts. Our lattice burner also casts a lovely decorative shadow while it works.
Are reed diffusers safer than candles for homes with children and pets?
Reed diffusers are flame-free, which makes them a practical option for homes with children or pets, and they provide a constant, subtle scent without any supervision needed. That said, the fragrance oil inside is not safe to ingest, so always keep the bottle out of reach and wipe up any spills immediately. For families looking for a completely flame-free option, a reed diffuser is an excellent choice.
