Scented candles aren't just for looks (although, some of these mini pie candles may beg otherwise!). A yummy scented candle can transport you to a cozy windowsill with a good book and a mug of hot chocolate, or can bring you back to your Grandmama's kitchen as she's pulling her famous lemon pound cake from the oven. All of these candles are both pretty and pretty yummy. If you're a fan of sweets, we've got you covered with a rich pecan pie candle, a sweet strawberry shortcake candle, and even a birthday cake candle. Looking for something a little more rugged? A bacon and bourbon candle will bring lots of flavor to your home. Or, if you're a weekend bruncher – there's a champagne and sugared mandarin-scented candle that you have to try. We can't guarantee that you'll make it through these delicious candle scents without drooling a little bit.
