This year’s ‘IT’ gift? Fat Hippo’s limited edition 100% plant-based bacon candle is back!
• National restaurant group Fat Hippo’s very first foodie candle collection sold out in just 24 hours last year – and rumour has it, they’re back with the perfect gift for food lovers this Christmas!
• Teaming up once again with the candle crafters Hot Wax, they’ve crafted a brand new, scented bacon candle, hand-poured with natural soy wax that’s 100% vegan!
• Scent-imental savoury food-scented candles that smell good enough to eat – without any of the calories!
• In a world of celebrity scents from Jeremy Clarkson to Gwyneth Paltrow, isn’t it about time for a candle that takes bacon to centre stage?
If there was one thing pretty much anyone with a nose can agree on, it’s that the scent of bacon cooking really is one of the most recognisable, and to some, most irresistible smell in life. Boasting a reputation of being that all-round, casually familiar, cross-mealtime staple, the smell of it sizzling away on a Saturday morning before you seize the day is top tier. But what if there’s no bacon in sight?
If smells are that sentimental passage to the past, what better place to be transported to than your favourite food happy place? Step back up national burger joint, Fat Hippo, proud to have turned the Secret Santa game upside-down once again as they light up this festive season with the return of their 100% vegan, bacon-scented candle. Just imagine: the rich, crispy aroma of smoky, maple-sweet bacon drifting through the air, completely plant-based and guilt-free. This isn’t just any candle – it’s pure bacon bliss in a jar (minus the calories).
We already know conventional candles are melting away. With recent trends raising eyebrows – from “Bollock” scents courtesy of Jeremy Clarkson, to a £58 aroma from Gwyneth Paltrow that was, let’s say, quite personal… As well as industry giants Greggs’ preserving their potent pasties in paraffin. The candle world’s wild – and Fat Hippo couldn’t resist adding a meaty twist!
“We wanted to create a gift that was head-turning and fun, just like our brand,” says Nick Fountain, Head of Marketing and Communications at Fat Hippo. “Our BurgerLab team had a blast collaborating with Hot Wax, a small independent business near our Newcastle HQ, on a project that’s totally outside the burger box but still brings a bit of Fat Hippo joy into your home.”
And here’s the kicker: this limited-edition gem is soy-based, hand-poured, and there are only 80 candles up for grabs. Each one lovingly numbered and hand packaged, adding that extra bit of bragging rights. With their previous collection selling out in just 24 hours this time last year, priced at just £15, once they’re gone, they’re gone – so if you’re after a stocking filler that’s going to turn heads… and noses, move fast.
So, whether you’re a foodie, a bacon fanatic, or on the hunt for a unique gift, this candle is here to bring all the cosy, bacon vibes, smelling just like your favourite burger happy place without a single rasher in sight. Your festive season is about to smell a whole lot… tastier!
Available exclusively on Fat Hippo’s website with nationwide delivery with a limited run – once they’re gone, they’re gone… Don’t blow it!
