Suz E Bee Candles Takes Out Prizes





Congratulations to Suzanne Blakestone and Suz E Bee Candles for taking out these prizes at the recent Sydney show!


Suz E Bee Candles are all handmade in Port Stephens, NSW using only the finest 100% Pure Australian Beeswax (from the Hunter Region of NSW) and pure cotton wick.  

As Suz says on her website, "They are not only a great gift for yourself or someone special, they are also beneficial in many other ways - to your health (by purifying the air you breath), to the environment (no toxic smoke) and to local beekeepers and their communities" 

2013 Sydney Royal Easter Show

Class 7: Two Moulded Candles, natural beeswax
1st Prize: Buzzing Bee Pillar

2nd Prize: Fern Pillar
Class 8: Two Rolled Candles, natural beeswax

The Suz E Bee range of handmade beeswax candles & products include:

  • Roll Your Own candle kits

I was shocked to learn that so many candles that look and smell nice are full of chemicals and artificial components, fortunately you don't have to settle for toxic fumes.

  • Petro-chemicals
  • Bleaches
