KI Candles are made by Hanna's Candles in Fayetteville - my local Kroger had these Hanna's candles http://www.hannascandles.com/pc-113-6-eternal-love-55x35-frosted-heart.aspx and http://www.hannascandles.com/pc-112-6-romantic-bouquet-55x35-frosted-heart.aspx without frosting, called "love' and "admire"...75% off, for $2.25. Big Valentine's clearance, triple wicks are ver ynice. No box, but I don't care.

Orange Clove: Very strong throw. First scent is clove with moderate orange notes. Spicy, exotic scent. Soy burns clean but wick needs to be trimmed often. 20 oz frosted jar. lasts a LONG time! Blueberry: smells like an artificial bluberry muffin mix. Good throw for a 12 oz jar. Soy burns completely no leftover. I would buy the orange Clove again but not the blueberry.

I purchased two of these Acafe (by Hanna's Candle Co.) candles at Walgreens 2/$10.00 on sale. Sugared Pecan Pie and Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. The Oatmeal R.C. was very strong, but I couldn't keep the wick trimmed AND get a complete melt pool. If I left the wick alone it would mushroom something fierce, but would eventually melt the candle completely. However, pieces would also drop off into the wax. The tag says soy candle, but I think it is a blend. The Sugared Pecan Pie smelled wonderful cold, but I refuse to babysit my candles when there are better soy candle companies out there, so I gave it away as a gift. Many people like these candles and have no problems with them so go ahead and give them a try, they're just not for me, maybe I am too picky. ;) On a positive note, the container is a cute sugar shaker that could be used after the candle was gone.
