About Flakes and Flames

Hi, I'm Mallika – the brains (and heart) behind Flakes and Flames. I started this company with my husband, Kevin, out of our shared love for scent and the cozy ambience it creates in our home. Whether it's a quiet date night in, movie marathons, getting lost in a good book, or simply unwinding after a long day – scent has become an essential part of our daily rituals. It all began with candles. We discovered how lighting a candle could instantly transform a space and uplift a mood. But we also learned that not all candles are created equal. Many conventional options on the market are made with harmful ingredients that can compromise your indoor air quality and well-being. That eye-opening realization pushed us to create something better – a cleaner, safer way to enjoy fragrance. Flakes and Flames is now so much more than just candles. We've grown into a holistic home fragrance brand, offering 100% soy wax candles, hand-poured wax melts, refreshing room sprays, elegant reed diffusers, and car diffusers – all thoughtfully crafted to infuse your spaces with clean, non-toxic scents. All of our products are made with high-quality ingredients like phthalate and paraben-free fragrance oils, eco-friendly soy wax, and lead-free cotton wicks. Each item is made with intention, designed to add warmth and personality to your environment without compromising your health. Every product is a labor of love, and we hope they bring you the same comfort, joy, and serenity that they bring us.Read their story
