2025 News

Spring is here

(hopefully!)

​It's March in Minnesota, we've already had false spring #1, and now it's finally warming up.  We've been delivering our spring collection to stores!  Lemon Sunrise (shown left) is a bright and creamy lemon citrus, The Bee's Knees is scented of wild honey and lavender, and Garden Variety smells like fresh green leaves and melon.

But not all our usual stockists carry the spring line, so we also have them available here on our website.  Supply is limited so get them before they're gone!

New smells!

March, 2025

In plenty of time for Mother's Day or any day, our Weird Mom's Club candle is available to order now.  It smells fabulously fresh, like coconut blossom+tuberose+amber musk.

It's a perfect gift for an expectant mother, your own weird mama, or even yourself!

Don't forget to
trim your wick!

every time

Our #1 candle tip is this: TRIM YOUR WICK

After each burn, once the wax has cooled, it's important to remove the black crumbling ash before relighting.  You can use a wick trimmer, a scissors, or even just pinch off as much as you can with your fingers.  Removing the excess ash makes relighting easier, keeps the flame at a safe height, and prevents smoking of the jar.  The wax also burns more efficiently so your candle will last longer too!  Now that's advice we can all get behind!

​

Want a fancy wick trimmer like the one in the photo?  We've got you covered here.

About Us

What's in a name?

'Sota Cracklers!  It's a terrible, terrible pun... so of course we went with it!  Actually the name of our made-in-Minnesota candles is partly derived from the crackling wooden wicks we use!  We're also BIG fans of Minnesota & proud to call the state our home!  That's why our scents are named after places & things that are uniquely Minnesotan, like our piney Northwoods scent, or our fresh and watery Lake Superior Splash scent.

 

We value quality, craftsmanship, & beautiful design.  We strive to bring you a bit of nature with our crackling wood wicks, set into naturally smoke-less soy wax candles, which fit brilliantly into any modern or traditional home decor.  Our wood wicks are responsibly sourced from US forests & our wax is also made from American grown soy beans.  All our candles are carefully poured by hand, in small batches, in our White Bear Lake home studio for your enjoyment.
