The legend and everything about this wonderful
tradition is clearly printed on the back of the box
for you and your loved ones to cherish and remember
forever!
Burning bayberry candles is a tradition dating back
to colonial times. Early colonists came upon the
bayberry shrub growing in the sand belt of the
Atlantic coast, as well as the shores of Lake Erie.
The berry-type fruit is crusted with a
greenish-white wax, settlers found that boiling the
fruit created a wax residue on the surface of the
water. The wax had a fragrant aroma and burned
magnificently. Many berries had to be boiled to get
enough wax to make a candle, these candles burned
longer, cleaner, and brighter than did the
traditional candles of the time. Therefore, bayberry
candles were saved and burned on special occasions
only! One such special occasion was the celebration
of the New Year.
Over the years, the burning of bayberry candles on
New Year's became a tradition, creating a saying by
who, no one knows, yet the tradition continues
today:
"Bayberry candles burned to the socket, bring
health to the home and wealth to the pocket!"
The wax was believed to have medicinal uses, and
honoring someone by burning a bayberry candle had a
special meaning, perhaps creating a closer
partnership and therefore better dealings!
Keep the tradition alive by burning a bayberry
candle during the holidays, or better yet, give one
to a close friend as a gift to ensure a close
relationship.
We hope that our long burning bayberry scented
tapers will bring you and your loved ones a
peaceful, plentiful, and rewarding new year.

A family tradition brought back to light...
Our family burned bayberry candles every year on Christmas Eve and again on New Year's Eve; a family tradition passed down over the generations to chase out the old and bless us with good fortune throughout the New Year. When I moved from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Texas, I couldn't find them in stores anywhere; people down here had never heard of this; for years all I could find were green tapers. Found these a few years back & I'm ecstatic; once again we have resume the family tradition! These candles are real bayberry candles -superb in every way! Refreshing light scent and they burn clean down to the socket! Recently, I began giving these to friends to bless them with candles which, when "burned to the socket, bring health to the home and wealth to the pocket!"
The very best bayberry candles!!
The candles are first rate - smell good and arrived unbroken. Wrapped very well. I've been burning a bayberry candle each Christmas for at least 50 years!!!!
Lighting a bayberry candle on New Year's Eve is a tradition in our family. They are hard to find in local shops lately, so when I found these online, I ordered enough for my family members. They smell GREAT. The best scent of a bayberry candle I have ever smelled. We won't be lighting them for a few weeks yet, but the packaging is attractive, and they arrived in a timely fashion. I'm very pleased with this product.

I purchased these candles for my aunt. She is a firm believer in the tradition of burning a bayberry candle (taper only) on New Years' Eve. She loves the candles that I purchased for her and we highly recommend these candles.
