If you're on the hunt for a stocking stuffer that's sure to delight, look no further than the deliciously scented new Starburst Candles.
The colorful new Starburst Candles were originally spotted by the Instagram account @threesnackateers at a Sentry Foods grocery store (a chain exclusive to Wisconsin). According to the post, the Starburst Candles come in two flavors inspired by the fruity candy. There's a pink candle with a fresh Watermelon scent and a yellow candle with a tropical Piña Colada.
For those who aren't big fans of Starburst candies, there are also other candy-scented candles to choose from. There's a Cherry Livesavers candle and a Skittles candle that boasts a sweet Melon Berry scent.
