Moose Tracks Ice Cream teamed up with another Michigan-based company, Wax Poetic Candle Bar, to create an ice cream-inspired candle that promises to delight those who want to indulge their senses. The candle is made with ingredients sourced from Michigan and they capture the essence of the Original Moose Tracks flavor with vanilla, peanut butter cups and Moose Tracks Fudge.
The 11-ounce candle has a 70-hour burn time and an organic cotton wick and it provides a comforting experience for ice cream lovers. Candles have become especially popular over the past few years as a result of people spending an extended period of time at home and wanting to elevate the look and feel of the atmosphere.
