From $50.29

On a weekday morning in Toledo, Ohio, the Pyoor Candles studio feels like a small laboratory for celebration. The Birthday Cake Candle Making Experience takes you through 90 minutes of hands-on craft, where natural soy wax and Birthday Cake fragrance oil are the materials, and sprinkles do the finishing. This guided workshop opens a different kind of access to the region’s long glass-and-craft tradition: instead of blown glass, you leave with a sculpted, scented piece you can light at home. Guests begin at a communal table with an instructor who explains safety protocols and candle basics. The core of the session is learning to whip poured soy wax into an "icing" texture, then sculpt it into layered, cake-shaped forms. You pour a candle base, texture the whipped wax to simulate frosting, and add decorative toppings—non-food sprinkles, wax confetti, and tiny fondant-like petals that hold in wax. The studio balances creative freedom with clear technique: scent blending, wick placement, and cooling time all factor into a candle that burns cleanly and safely. This experience stands out in northwest Ohio because it pairs approachable craft instruction with local materials and small-group attention. The Birthday Cake fragrance oil and soy wax offer a cleaner-burning alternative to paraffin, and the workshop’s format—groups of two to twelve—keeps instruction personal. Families with kids age eight and up can craft together, and the studio’s bright workspace makes the process easy to photograph and share. Practical details matter: the session runs about 90 minutes to two hours, and light refreshments are provided. The business warns that fragrance sensitivities or severe allergies cannot be accommodated, and participants must follow safety directions when working with warm wax. Finished candles are decorative and intended for home use only. Why book it? If you want a compact, social creative project that yields a tactile keepsake, this workshop is ideal. It’s a good rainy-day activity or an alternative date or birthday outing in Toledo’s creative scene. Drop by after a visit to the Toledo Museum of Art or combine it with a stroll along the Maumee River; you’ll return home with a shelf-ready piece that smells like frosting and holds the small, shared memory of making something by hand. Participants leave with a decorative candle plus care and burn instructions from the instructor, so your handcrafted cake performs well as a mantle accent or low-drip centerpiece. The compact, beginner-friendly format makes this a memorable way to support Toledo’s small-batch makers without a long time commitment. Book online via the listed reservation link; groups and private parties fit within the two-to-twelve participant limit, and the steady, hands-on pace keeps everyone involved through the final set and the candles travel home ready for gifting now.
