Gingersnapped Candles

Ginger Snapped is an artisan candle company handmade in St. Louis, Missouri. Founded in 2020 by Breanna, a queer Black woman who was tired of overpaying for mass-produced candles and worried about what was actually in them, the brand was built around a simple promise: know exactly what you are using in your home and on your body. That transparency runs through everything, from carefully chosen high-quality yet sustainable ingredients to packaging and shipping materials that are 100% recyclable and biodegradable. What began with candles and wax melts has grown into a full lineup of home fragrance, car fragrance, and bath and body products, all made in small batches and priced to stay affordable. Run out of a St. Louis home (with plenty of help from a wife and six pets), Ginger Snapped keeps things personal and community-minded, partnering with local artisans and organizations and popping up at neighborhood markets and partner shops across the St. Louis and Southern Illinois area. Pickup and delivery are available locally, and online ordering ships the eco-conscious scents anywhere. It is a small business with big values: clean ingredients, sustainable choices, and fragrance you can feel good about burning.
