Christmas Candle Making Workshop at Huffkins, Burford: Saturday 28th November 2026 - 11am-12.30pm

Step into the festive spirit and join us for a magical Christmas Candle Making Workshop in the heart of the Cotswolds, hosted in collaboration with iconic Cotswolds bakery Huffkins on Burford High Street.

After our Christmas candle making workshops went viral and completely sold out by September last year, they're back for Christmas 2026 – this time in the beautiful setting of Burford High Street and Huffkins Bakery, with festive mince pies and a glass of bubbly to enjoy while you pour.

Whether you're planning a festive get-together with friends, looking for a special Christmas activity with loved ones, or simply fancy some creative time out, our workshops are the perfect way to slow down, soak up the atmosphere of Christmas in the Cotswolds and create your very own festive candle.

What’s included

  • Everything you'll need to hand-pour your own soy wax candle
  • Expert guidance from our friendly Home County Co. home fragrance specialist
  • A selection of fragrances to choose from – from festive favourite to summer scents - mix your own unique blend or choose a tried and tested favourite
  • A delicious Huffkins mince pie
  • A glass of bubbly to toast the season
  • Your own beautifully handcrafted candle to take home and enjoy throughout the festive season

No previous candle-making experience is needed. We'll guide you through the process from fragrance selection to pouring your candle, sharing a few of our candle-making secrets along the way.

Set on Burford's beautiful High Street, Huffkins provides the perfect setting for a cosy festive morning or afternoon. Make a day of it with a wander around one of the Cotswolds' prettiest towns, before joining us for mince pies, bubbles and candle making.

You'll leave with your own hand-poured candle, a new skill and, we hope, a lovely festive memory too.

Our Christmas workshops went viral and sold out by September last year, so we recommend booking early if you'd like to join us this Christmas.

Book your place today – and pour a little bit of Christmas in the Cotswolds.

FAQs

What wax do you use in your candles?

All of our candles are made using biodegradable, vegan friendly soy wax, manufactured in the UK from pure soybean oil. Unlike with paraffin wax candles, soy wax candles burn cleanly with no sooting, so our candles won't mark your walls or ceilings.

Learn all about the difference between soy wax and paraffin wax here.

Why do you use wooden wicks?

We use wooden wicks in our candles because they are more sustainable than traditional cotton wicks, and burn with a delightful, subtle crackling sound.

Read more about why we use wooden wicks here.

How do I look after my wooden wick candle?

All of our candles come with candle care information in the box, it's super simple:

1) Light your candle from the base of the wick, closest to the wax

2) Trim your wick to 4mm before each burn (no special tools required, fingertips work perfectly for trimming wooden wicks)

It really is that simple, but if you'd like to read more about how to look after your wooden wick candle you can do so here.

Our Single Wick Candle (220g/7.4oz) burn time is 45 hours

Our 3 Wick Candle (400g/14oz) burn time is 75 hours
