The Buckeye State Candle
A Sweet Tribute to Ohio’s Most Beloved Flavor Combo
At Tildy Candle Co., we’re proudly rooted in Columbus, Ohio — and nothing captures the heart (and scent) of Ohio better than chocolate and peanut butter.
That’s why we created our newest small-batch release: The Buckeye State — a hand-poured soy candle inspired by the iconic Buckeye candy. If you’ve ever sunk your teeth into that perfect blend of creamy peanut butter and smooth chocolate, you already know this scent is going to be love at first light.
And yes — there’s even a little sugar in the mix for that warm, comforting finish. One sniff and you're instantly transported to your grandma’s kitchen on game day.
Ohio Made. Nostalgia Approved.
As an Ohio-based candle company, we wanted this candle to feel like home. Every Buckeye State candle is:
Made with 100% soy wax
Poured by hand in small batches right here in Columbus, OH
Infused with phthalate-free, toxin-free fragrance oils
Finished with a lead-free cotton wick for a clean, even burn
This isn’t just another chocolate candle. It’s a scent experience that combines local pride, homegrown sweetness, and serious game-day energy.
Game Day, Any Day: The Candle with Spirit
Whether you're tailgating at The Shoe or binge-watching old OSU highlights from the couch, The Buckeye State candle brings the same cozy, nostalgic feeling of fall football in Ohio. It's perfect for:
-
Gifting to proud Ohioans (or out-of-staters who miss home)
-
Lighting before the big game 🏆
-
Sweetening up your kitchen or living room
-
Reminding you of your favorite homemade Buckeye treats
And here's the kicker: every candle includes a QR code that, when scanned, plays the Buckeye Battle Cry — so you can literally light up your team spirit.
Talk about a candle with soul.
Clean Ingredients. Cozy Results.
At Tildy Candle Co., we believe what you don’t put in your candles matters just as much as what you do.
That’s why The Buckeye State candle is:
Paraben-free
Phthalate-free
Pet-safe when used responsibly
Made from renewable soy wax, which burns cleaner and longer than paraffin
We’re obsessed with creating non-toxic, clean-burning candles that fill your home with rich, comforting scents — without the headaches or harsh chemicals.
