I had a really great experience in their candle making session. The host was well spoken, high spirited, and really knowledgeable of the candle process and made everyone feel comfortable. I will definitely do another session and share my experience with my family so they may do the same.

The candle making experience was absolutely amazing. What made the experience special was Tica’s design of engagement amongst each participant, we all shared new experiences in different facets. I would recommend attending her events for a nice date, solo evening, or night out with friends.

Just hosted my 2nd business event at Raw Edition Candle Company. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Ticca & her team provided a great space & the perfect atmosphere. Clean, beautiful environment. Perfect for events. Highly recommend. Professional, kind, energetic team making everything a breeze. Had to buy a few of their incredible candles while I was there. They must be sources their scents directly from heaven because nothing else explains how these candles candle smell so amazing. I would recommend Ticca, her team, her products, her candle pouring experiences, and her space to everyone… except mean people.

This was my first candle making class and I LOVED it. I really enjoyed the personal touches and activities outside of creating the candles to make the time go by faster. I would definitely do this again and recommend this for anyone who is looking to celebrate any type of milestone in life. It will be a fun session to remember.

Absolutely AMAZING experience! We had a private birthday candle making session for my mother’s birthday and this was the perfect celebration. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the unique experience. Ticca was not only the best teacher and host but extremely passionate, knowledgeable, kind, fun, and inspiring. Thank you Ticca!

Outstanding experience we planned a candle party for a bridal shower. Not only was the class amazing. She closed the shop down and gave us a downtown tour of the local shops in Durham. 10/10 experience!!! She also rents her space out for other small business owners.

Ms. Harris, you provided an awesome experience. The candle making class was amazing. I learned some much and enjoyed the final product. What made the experience the best was you taking the time to give us a tour of the area. You’re the best and I encourage all of you to come in to experience what I did.

My husband gifted me The Raw Edition Candle for our anniversary. From the moment I opened it I knew it was not any ordinary candle. It's evident that only the finest ingredients were used. The scent was enchanting and transport me into a instant calm. The wax burns evenly and doesn't leave that smoky scent afterwards. My husband said the customer service was great. She respond quickly and helped him navigate through her selection. Thank you!

What a special and unique experience to work with Ticca at her lovely space in east Durham. Ticca was knowledgeable, kind, fun, and inspiring. Not only did we learn about the best way to make and treat our candles, we also walked away with some great life lessons, beautiful stories from new friends, and a face that hurt from so much laughing and smiling. Thank you Ticca!

Had an awesome time on Christmas Eve with our family at The Raw Edition Candle Company. We made wonderful candles, learned a lot about making a selecting quality candles, and enjoyed ourselves with great company. Highly recommend supporting this business and hosting a private event with them.
