Spotted Hog is is definitely in my top 5 companies for scented melts. I LOVE this brand!! Of course I had to order all their new Alice in Wonderland inspired scents. The sounded fun and too good to pass up.
Up first: Hatter’s Tea Party!!
This scent is described as:
Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, a harmonious mixture of a variety of our house blends~Pumpkin Pecan Waffles, Orange pound cake, Madagascar Vanilla, Maple Syrup and Sugar cookie with Royal Icing.
With Spotted Hog melts, I’m a brittle girl and always purchase the big 16oz bags right off the bat. I know what I like and I like her scents in bulk. Once I popped a few chunks of wax in my melters, it took not even 10 minutes to start noticing the aroma. Not long after that, the fragrance was everywhere and boy was it unique and delicious. I could smell it all, orange pound cake, vanilla, maple syrup, cookies and super sugary icing. Not sure on the Pumpkin Pecan Waffles but I didn’t care… the overall scent was sweet, fresh and satisfied that bakery craving I’m always searching for. To me, the most pronounced notes in the aroma was orange pound cake, sugar cookies and icing. YUM!!
Strength – on a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate these melts an 8. Not saturation strong but a nice and steady medium. I was happy overall.
Loved this scent and will definitely be purchasing more before summer ends.
Happy melting!

The Spotted Hog is one of my favorite candle companies. Tarrah is great!
A very long time ago, I was one of the first customers to leave a glowing review.
I have been buying from Tarrah since they opened. Might be giving away my age there.
Impeccable customer service and generous added goodies always are greatly appreciated.
Cinnamon Banana Fritters tends to be one of my always have to have on hand candles.
Enjoy your new melts! ????
This sounds like something I know I would purchase as I am a bakery scented fan! I even like the name of the scent! Spotted Hog is one of the vendors I have not tried but do plan to make a purchase after seeing the great reviews here on Candlefind and Candlescoop.
I am a huge Candle fan and love melts/ tarts..you name it..I am in it for the aroma..I put in for a fairly large order to the Spotted Hog for brittle factor. I ordered a few of their popular scents…I must have gotten a bad batch of everything except for the witch’s broomstick. It was the only fragrance that Myself and many others could really smell. I was very disappointed!
Oh man! That’s a bummer Toni. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad batch. Some fragrances last longer than others but as far as strength, they’ve all been great. I’ve got Hatter’s Tea Party going right now and it’s strong and been on for several hours now.
I will have to try that one Christina…I was just very disappointed because I heard all the great reviews..but I will try them again just to make sure . Thanks for the good info!
Hmm… You’re the second person that had issues with an order. I just received a new order not long ago… this scent was part of it. Will have to pay attention to the others to see.
I am a bakery lover and I love pumpkin pecan waffles and ALL cake scents!! I have never tried the spotted Hog, I just might need to check them out:)
Sheri, our next giveaway will be a Spotted Hog melt sampler pack. 🙂
