Candles to burn in your kitchen to make your friends think you’re a domestic goddess

We may love watching Top Chef, but it’s not exactly a label we’d use to describe ourselves IRL. Can we master a bowl of cereal? Yes. Can we nail the cheddar to bread ratio of a cheese toasty? Certainly. But can we whip up the perfect paella without burning the bottom? Erm, perhaps not. However, just because we’re not always actually crushing it in the kitchen doesn’t mean we can’t make it smell like we are. So, whether you’re aiming to mask the unfortunate odour of a ruined recipe or just want your place to constantly smell like your favourite foods, these kitchen-friendly candles are ideal for taking the aroma of your cooking space from dodgy to delicious. Let’s dig in.

Circa Home

Circa Home Kitchen Alchemy™ White Tea & Wild Mint Classic Candle

Trying a new recipe and on the fence about the aroma? No worries. With mint, bergamot and white tea, this kitchen-friendly candle was actually specifically designed to refresh and cleanse the aroma of your cooking space, so you can spend less time spritzing air freshener and more time experimenting with your culinary creativity.

ECOYA

ECOYA French Pear Madison Jar

A candle that can combat fruit crumble cravings? Take. Our. Money. With crisp pear and creamy vanilla, the scent hits your senses with the same classic combo as crumble and ice cream – part fruity, part creamy, and downright delectable.

Molton Brown

Molton Brown Orange & Bergamot Candle

Feeling fruity? Let zest take over your territory with an invigorating citrus blend. Featuring an energetic mix of bergamot, lemon and orange, the energetic scent will have people thinking you’ve been slaving over a citrus fruit salad all morning long.

Glasshouse

Glasshouse Fragrances Magic Spell Pumpkin Pie Triple Scented Candle

A pumpkin pie candle will make the perfect festive fragrant addition to your benchtop this spooky season. With mouth-watering hints of maple, nutmeg and of course, pumpkin – it’s basically as good as a bite of the real thing.

Diptyque

Diptyque Vanille Candle ($87, mecca.com.au)

If Blake Lively and Donna Hay shared a kitchen, we’d like to imagine this is what it would smell like – both baking connoisseurs are big fans of vanilla cupcakes, and this delectable delight offers an olfactory experience akin to pulling a fresh batch of them straight from the oven.

Jo Malone London

Jo Malone London Blackberry & Bay Home Candle ($92, mecca.com.au)

Not sure if you’ve got the energy to whip up a blackberry pie? You can still make it smell like you did thanks to this lush wick. It delivers a burst of juicy, tart blackberry, but the cedarwood and bay leaf base add delectable depth to the scent (and cosiness to your kitchen).
