With fall just around the corner, brands are launching their "cozy essentials" like Bath & Body Works, who recently launched another collection of autumn candles, but this series has a unique twist — each candle is inspired by a specific comforting bakery snack. Each three-wick candle is formulated with essential oils and is designed to burn for up to 45 hours.
The eight-piece collection includes the 'Warm Apple Pie Candle,' the 'Pupkin Snickerdoodle Candle,' the 'Pumpkin Cupcake Candle,' the 'Pumpkin Cookie Dough Candle,' the 'Dutch Apple Waffle Candle,' the 'Banana Walnut Muffing Candle,' the 'Sugar Cherry Crisp Candle,' and the 'Cinnamon Irish Cream Candle.' The entire collection is now available online and Bath & Body Works retailers.
