About Us
My name is Melissa and I am the owner of Caribou Candles.
I’m a mom, a wife, a chemistry teacher and an animal lover. At home my husband, son and I have 6 pets. We have 4 cats (Rupert, Willow, Onyx & Remi) and 2 goats (Pancake & Waffles).
I started my journey to healthier candle making when the smoke from the Canadian fires made it difficult to breathe. I realized just how much “stuff” is in the air that we breathe on a daily basis that’s not so good for us (including the beloved candles I’d buy at local stores). Being a chemistry teacher, I am around chemicals ALL day long and I figured it’s about time I eliminate some of that in my life. So, I started my research on which type of wax and scents would be best for the “healthiest” candles.
