A cheeky nod to the big 4-0: the label jokes that 40 is when you realise you’ve been ‘adulting for 22 years without an instruction manual’, ringed with balloons, a frosted cupcake, a party hat and bursts of confetti. Hand it to a best friend, sister, brother or colleague hitting forty, whether it’s a surprise party centrepiece, a milestone birthday gift from the group chat, or the one present that makes them laugh before they groan.

Your candle questions answered.

How does the multi-buy work?
Your first candle is £20, your second is £15, your third is £10, and your fourth is just £5. That is four candles for £50 instead of £80, taken off automatically in your basket.

Mix any designs and any occasions you like. Every candle after the fourth is £5 too, so eight candles is £70.

When will my order arrive?
Orders placed before 4pm Monday to Friday are sent the same day. Delivery is free on orders over £25, and you’ll see the available delivery options at checkout. Delivery dates are estimates, so please allow extra time during busy periods.
Can I send it straight to the recipient?
Yes. Enter their address as the delivery address at checkout. The candle arrives in its own presentation tube.
