Roma Heirloom Tomato Candle

Roma Heirloom Tomato Candle from Flamingo Estate. Their Heirloom Tomato Leaf candle is the most famous product. It’s the scent of balmy nights in the Flamingo Estate garden. Sometimes during Summer we run down the terrace and sit under the moonlight, where our beloved Heirloom Tomato wraps all around us, hanging heavy from the vine and releasing its intoxicating aroma — especially at sunset when the vines are watered and the leaves become their most fragrant. Drunk on sunshine and giddy with Lycopene, the Heirloom leaves create the most unique, herbaceous scent. We have encapsulated this feeling with our beloved candle, the product that started it all.

Candles are packaged in boxes with an FSC certification, which means they were made using materials from responsibly managed forests, including some recycled paper products.

The soy wax in their candles is non-GMO and grown in the USA.

When burning your candle for the first time, allow it to burn for 2 to 3 hours, until the top layer of the wax has completely melted. This will prevent the wax from tunneling around the wick. When burning the candle after the first burn, do not let it burn for over 3 hours at a time. 

Ideally, we recommend keeping the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch at all times to prevent the candle from emitting smoke or the wick falling into the wax.

After each burn, see that the wick is centered in the wax. This will also ensure that the glass does not overheat. The wick and flame should never be touching the glass. When approaching the end of the candle, leave ¼ inch of wax unburned and ensure you are not burning the candle for more than 3 hours. The glass can get overheated without the presence of wax and break.
