What to Expect from this workshop making scented candles
Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed with a warm cup of coffee or tea. The workshop takes place in our very own candle studio, located at the creative hub Kanaal 30 in Utrecht, where you’ll get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Brandt. During this scented candle making workshop, you will:

While your candles are setting, enjoy delicious cinnamon buns and explore the studio.
By the end of the morning, you’ll head home with two handcrafted candles made from 100% soy wax, subtly scented with your own unique natural fragrance blend — good for 40 to 50 hours of cozy burn time! You’ll leave with a heart full of joy, hands a little messy, and a mind packed with candle-making knowledge.
Candles in Glass Jars
We use the same jars from our Apothecary Collection, timeless amber pots made from recycled glass. Here’s why we love using glass jars:
- Infinitely reusable: refill with our refills or repurpose as a plant pot, pen holder, or storage jar
- Great for preserving scent and maximizing burn time
- A beautiful gift and stylish in any interior
Why Soy Wax candles?
Curious about the wax we use? More and more studies highlight the harmful effects of paraffin candles. At Brandt, we aim to offer a healthier, eco-conscious alternative so you can enjoy candles worry-free. The benefits of soy wax include:
- 100% natural and biodegradable
- Burns 45% longer than paraffin candles
- Less soot, healthier for indoor use
- Ideal for blending with natural fragrances
