Our Story

In 2003, my work brought me to a small candle-making company. I still remember stepping into that workshop for the first time—the warm wax, the subtle aromas, the intimate hum of production. The owner took me under his wing, patiently demonstrating how truly authentic candles were made. Until that day, my only experience with candle creation was a couple of botched experiments from my youth involving spilled wax and lopsided wicks.

Curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to try my hand at making candles with supplies from local craft stores. While my first attempts looked decent, they completely missed the mark on scent throw and proper burn. Life had other plans: I continued with my career for many more years, the memory of that candle workshop quietly tucked away.

Then came the time for early retirement. With a renewed sense of purpose—and a sudden abundance of free time—I found myself revisiting the memory of that friendly candle-maker. The more I thought about it, the more I realized I still had a passion for creating candles. So, my wife and I delved into hours of research and countless experiments, determined to craft candles made with natural ingredients and exceptional quality.

Finally, Tossa Del Mar® was born—a reflection of our journey and a testament to simple, honest craftsmanship. Each candle we pour is a product of dedication, care, and the belief that even the smallest flame can bring warmth and tranquility into our lives. Welcome to Tossa Del Mar®, where natural candle-making and heartfelt tradition burn brightly together.
