Festive Spiced Biscuit

The sweetest traditions start at home.

Glasshouse Fragrances Gingerbread House is a gingerbread-scented Christmas candle with notes of caramel, ginger and vanilla. Its gourmand fragrance captures the comforting sweetness of festive baking, with warming spices adding a nostalgic Christmas character.

How to Use

Before each burn, trim the cooled wicks to 7 mm, keep them upright and remove any wick trimmings from the wax. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, children, pets and flammable materials.

Light all wicks each time you use the candle. For the 380 g size, burn for one to four hours at a time, always keeping the candle in sight. Stop using it when 10 mm of unmelted wax remains at the bottom of the vessel. Never allow the flame to touch the side of the glass.

Extinguish with a candle snuffer; do not use water or the lid. Allow the wax to solidify and the vessel to cool completely before handling. Do not use if the glass is cracked, chipped or damaged. Always follow the safety instructions supplied with your candle. 

The Mood, by Loshen & Crem

We imagine a December afternoon with handwritten recipes on the counter, ribbon waiting to be tied and a favourite Christmas film playing in the background. There is something lovely about the familiar rituals: choosing the same biscuit cutters, bringing out the treasured ornaments and making time for the people who feel like home.

Gingerbread House is the candle we would choose for that kind of Christmas. Not a perfectly styled occasion, but a season filled with thoughtful little moments.

We would light it in the living room while writing holiday cards or preparing gifts for friends. For gifting, we would choose it for the person who treasures family recipes and always sends everyone home with something homemade.
