Cupcake Candles - Elf Games

Scent Description: When I sniff this, I definitely pick up on something minty. Besides that, I get a typical Christmas Tree type scent. I can't really describe this besides Christmasy!
Weight Melted: 1.3 oz.
Cold Sniff: 3/5 That minty scent really took over anything else that I could smell in this.
Warm Sniff: 4/5 The tree took over here, and the mint fell back to create a lovely Christmas melody for my nose.
Scent Strength: 2/3
Scent Throw: 3/5 Most of the kitchen and living room enjoyed this. I couldn't smell it in the bedroom whenever I was in there.
Melting Power: 3/5 I got about 8 hours of scent before it died off.
Repurchase: No. I loved the scent, but it didn't reach as far as I would have liked.
I've been in such a Christmasy mood since January. Whenever I come across a Holiday themed tart I have to melt it. I think it's because my holiday season didn't start until the 20th of December. Before that even though at work the Christmas station was on, I never felt ready for the holidays. It was probably because I was completely alone in Lubbock. M wasn't there, I wasn't seeing my family, I didn't really have friends... I didn't even start feeling like it was December until it was already almost over. I went grocery shopping the other day and I had to keep myself away from the turkeys, otherwise I would have bought one and made it just because I wanted to bring back Christmas/Thanksgiving! M wouldn't have been happy with me. It's hard for him to lose weight and keep it off, and he's always borderline overweight by Army standards. Turkey would not have helped this.

Cupcake Candles - Fluffy Pink Candy

I have a lot of Cupcake Candles' products. I finally decided to put a dent in this stash!
Warm Sniff: 5/5 If you love Lush's Candy Mountain bubble bar, you'll love this. It's an exact scent dupe, minus the suffocating notes of the bubble bar (has anyone else noticed this in the tub? I feel like I can't fully breathe after using the bubble bar)
Cold Sniff: 5/5 Same thing
Scent Strength: 1/3 I consider this a lighthearted background scent.
Scent Throw: 5/5 Buahahaha, I was in a very Lushy-mood over the course of three or four days that I melted this. Two cubes gave me exactly what I needed for the apartment.
Melting Power: 5/5 I got a full day's worth of scent from two cubes before switching this out. I'm down to two cubes and I'm thinking I'll use this again in a few days.
Repurchase: I would if I could. I have so much of this company's products, but when I go to their website there's nothing. I've looked online and there are so many things that pop up when you search 'cupcake candles' I'm not sure which company this originated from. So... If anyone else knows where this company is now or if they're even open I'm all ears!
