Homesick Candles and KFC Deliver the Bucket of Chicken Candle
References: kfcshop & go.skimresources
KFC works in collaboration with Homesick Candles on a pair of scented candles that nod to the signature fried chicken dish and buttery biscuits kicking off with the Bucket of Chicken candle. It is inspired by the iconic Original Recipe chicken which boasts savory notes of the fried chicken starting with browned flour and chicken at the base.
It is then layered with peppercorn and celery and then topped with a blend of garlic, sage, and oregano. For those who may be a bit put off by the savory candle, there is the option of the Buttery Biscuit candle which recreates the aroma of freshly baked biscuits and competes with the top notes of honey and baked flour.
