Tea Light Candles: Small Candles with Endless Possibilities
Designed for versatility and fragrance layering, Yankee Candle® Scented Tea Light Candles are a simple yet impactful way to add glow and scent to any space. Made with a premium plant wax blend and a natural fiber wick, these small candles are ideal for creating candlescapes, enhancing décor, and adding subtle fragrance wherever you want it most.
Perfectly sized for everyday use, tea light candles make it easy to bring warmth and ambiance to tables, shelves, and accent displays. Whether used alone or grouped together, they offer a flexible way to enjoy fragrance throughout your home.
Designed for Candlescapes and Fragrance Layering
Tea Light Candles are especially well suited for creating layered candle displays. Their small size allows you to place multiple candles together, mixing heights, holders, and scents to build visual interest and atmosphere.
Each candle burns for up to five hours, making tea lights a practical option for shorter gatherings, seasonal décor, or everyday ambiance. A self-extinguishing wick lets you know when it is time to replace the candle, adding an extra layer of convenience and peace of mind.
For best results, Tea Light Candles can be used with Yankee Candle Tea Light Candle Holders (sold separately), to help enhance both safety and presentation.
