Coffee lovers, we’ve got the collab of your dreams!

We’ve teamed up with our friends (& top coffee & doughnut extraordinaires!) at Deep North to bring you the most delicious mochachino candle. With notes of fresh ground coffee, cocoa & just a hint of vanilla. 

Deep North is a coffee shop in Tynemouth which is a small town 9 miles East of Newcastle upon Tyne. It is a surfer’s paradise with it’s beautiful long sandy beach and a vibrant high street on weekends filled with dog walkers, joggers and day trippers.

We’ve been asked many times to do a coffee-scented candle, so teaming up with Deep North seemed like the perfect match. Deep North provide the coffee grounds which helps create a unique scent and you know how much we love reusing to reduce our impact on the environment.

We’re using their leftover Allpress coffee grounds, alongside our vegan soy wax & recycled glass jars to give you the most sustainable candle yet!

The Michaccinno is available exclusively from Deep North’s shop own Front Street Tynemouth, as well as any markets they feature at.

Shopping for someone else but not sure what to get them? Give them the gift of choice with a Hot Wax  gift card.

Gift cards are delivered by email and contain instructions to redeem them at checkout. Launched today our gift cards are available in a range of amounts from just £10.00.

Ps – I’ll be the one in sequins!

We’ve had a little mention in the Evening Chronicle – I spoke to them at Newcastle Vegan Market at the weekend…

It was great chatting about our Vegan ethics and showcasing our scented candles to the vegans of Newcastle and beyond.

Ash Tate runs Hot Wax, a company which sells vegan candles. The 35-year-old, from Whickham, Gateshead, was selling her products at the market. She said: “Everything is completely vegan, we use soy wax. 

“I think people are trying to be more cautious of what’s going on around them. We get a good number of non-vegans buying products as well.”
