Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Quiet Evening
Last Day to get Lilac on Sale! Our June Fragrance of the Month will be announced tomorrow, so get those orders in today!! To give you a hint, today's recipe involves next month's featured fragrance... but which one is it? Hmmmmm.... The recipe is "Quiet evening" and it's a mix of Beanpod Candle's Solitude, Clarity, and Fresh Linen fragrances. You can make this mix any which way you like: soy beads in a melter, "seasoning" a jar candle, or simply burning one candle in each scent in the same location. It's up to you!

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Peaceful Rest
I don't know about where you are, but it has been a sultry, dusky, rainy week here in North Conway. It's the kind of weather that makes you want to just curl up and take a long afternoon nap. So, to abandon the decadent dessert theme for a day, I give you the Beanpod Candle recipe for Peaceful Rest. Combine Beanpod's Serenity, Fresh Linen, Lavender soy beads into your melter and warm. Now go grab that blanket, a nice cup of tea and a good book. "Rest your eyes" if you like... we won't tell!

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Baked Apple
Ok, clearly I'm in a foodie place this week, but I just can't help myself! Today's recipe is for Baked Apple. This will "hug" your house in warmth and sweetness. Today we'll skip the soy beads, and just go with the simplest way of creating a custom recipe: burning one candle in each scent. You can even play with the fragrance blend by burning different sizes, if you like! I prefer to start with a 16 oz. jar of Beanpod's Cinnamon Spice and compliment it with 4.5 oz. jars of Beanpod's McIntosh Apple & Whipped Cream.

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Fruit Truffle
Mmmmmmm.... truffles. Fruit truffles are even better! There's fruit, so they're not bad for you, right? That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Here's how to make your house smell just like a giant unwrapped Fruit Truffle. Simply mix equal parts of Beanpod's Fruit Slices, Whipped Cream, and Chocolate soy beads into your melter and warm. It's equal parts sweet and citrus-y, just like a warm summer's day.

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Herbal Relaxation
Ever start to feel a little overwhelmed by life? Who hasn't! Well, one of the best things about candles is that they are an extremely affordable form of relaxation! Here's today's recipe with that especially in mind: Herbal relaxation. Start with one each of Beanpod's Green Tea, Vanilla, Gingko & Ginseng candles in whichever size you prefer. Next simply light all three in the same space. The scents magically twirl together to form a fragrance so soothing and sweet it's like getting a massage - but with this you get to keep your clothes on!

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Sugar & Spice
Many of you who have been in our store are already familiar with my daughter, Ryan. She comes in with me several days a week and has become sort of a Soyfire mascot over the past two years. As the old saying goes, Ryan is definitely sugar & spice & everything nice, and - as such - she is also the inspiration for today's recipe. To make "Sugar & Spice" start with Beanpod's Sugar Cookie jar candle and "season it" with Whipped Cream & Cinnamon Spice soy beads. Ryan highly recommends it!

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Sunshine
Aaaahhh... Sunshine! Remember that? We actually set a record here in NH with 90 degree temperatures a few weeks back! It was nice to think of our owners who were down in Florida at the time experiencing colder days than we were! Of course, those few days were not meant to last and Spring has settled back into much more seasonal temperatures. Unfortunately, once you get a taste for that sunshine, a cloudy, rainy week like the one we've been experiencing can be a bit of a downer. So here's my quick fix, to get that bright, warm, fresh feeling of a sunny day, try mixing Beanpod's Aloe Vera, Lemon Citrus, Ocean Mist soy beads in a melter. It may not make you feel like you need to turn your AC on, but it'll do until those 90 degree days return!

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day: Raspberry Lime Rickey
Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone! On May the 5th, my thoughts naturally gravitate towards Margaritas (OK, so my thought gravitate towards Margaritas most other days, too, but I'm not alone on May the 5th!) Beanpod doesn't make a Margarita scented candle... yet... but here's a recipe that's sort of close, as well as involving my two favorite Margarita flavors. So today, as you cook up the enchiladas, nachos, and tacos and pour out the Margaritas, why not burn Beanpod's Lime Cooler and Raspberry Lemonade candles side by side? It's a fresh, fruity, tropical scent that will transport you south of the border. Ole!

Beanpod Soy Candle Recipe of the Day:Lemon Chocolate Cheesecake
I have to admit, this is one of the most sinfully delicious things I've ever eaten (no, not the candle, but the actual cheesecake)! Something about the sharpness of lemon mingling with the mellow sweetness of chocolate is just spectacular - and it's the same with the aromas as it is with the flavors! So here's another indulgent recipe: Burn Beanpod Candle's Cheesecake candle and season it with Lemon Citrus and Chocolate soy beads. It is simply heavenly! Enjoy!
