Meet the Maker: Kandlery

Crafting Moments of Tranquility in Brookline, Massachusetts

The Essence of Kandlery

We’re thrilled to introduce Kandlery, one of our featured makers at Cheerdocious, bringing their exceptional artisanal candles from the heart of Brookline, Massachusetts. Kandlery stands out in our curated collection for their innovative approach to candlemaking, bridging cultural heritage with contemporary wellness to offer busy professionals a slice of serenity in their daily lives.

Our Story

Behind every great brand is a passionate creator, and at Kandlery, that’s Mint Pattanan. Her journey began eight years ago when she founded Rootastes, an office lunch delivery company dedicated to nurturing professionals’ well-being through thoughtful nutrition.

Knotty Pines Woodworks

Today, that same commitment to wellness has evolved into Kandlery, where ancient Asian aromatherapy traditions meet modern sustainable practices.

“My entrepreneurial journey has always been guided by a simple question: How can we make busy professionals’ lives better?” Mint reflects. “With Kandlery, I found my answer in the untapped world of Asian-inspired fragrances, creating a line of candles that doesn’t just scent a room but transforms it into a sanctuary.”

The Craft

At Kandlery, every candle is a testament to my commitment to excellence and sustainability. Our signature blend of natural coconut and apricot wax creates the perfect foundation for our unique scent profiles. This proprietary blend isn’t just environmentally conscious—it’s specifically formulated to provide the optimal scent throw while maintaining the highest standards of clean burning.

What sets our candles apart are the thoughtfully selected wooden wicks that create a gentle, comforting crackling sound as they burn. This subtle auditory element adds another dimension to the sensory experience, reminiscent of a peaceful evening by the fireplace.

The Kandlery Difference

As a woman, AAPI, and immigrant-owned business, I bring a unique perspective to the U.S. candle market. Our Asian-inspired scent profiles are carefully curated to offer something different from the typical candle offerings. Each fragrance tells a story, drawing from rich cultural heritage while meeting modern clean fragrance standards.
We’re proud to be ‘Made Better Certified’, a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality and sustainability. This certification isn’t just a badge—it’s a promise to our customers that every Kandlery product meets the highest standards of:

  • Environmental responsibility
