By now most of you know how much I love candles, especially the ones with the jewelry in them – Prize Candle! Yes, those of you thinking about a Mother’s Day gift idea, or just a gift idea for her be sure to check out Prize Candle! I have always been pretty lucky and received a nice piece of jewelry in my candles. I do not know if I am just easy to please, because it’s like getting something AWESOME free inside something I would purchase regardless. Most of the rings I have received are at $10 or 25, but I have received a few that are worth more. Either way, they have all been pretty, either my daughter talks me out of them, or I wear them. Being that I have been getting candles from Prize Candle for so long, I thought I would share a few things you might not know about Prize Candle.
5 Things You Might Not Know About Prize Candle
I was asked to review a candle from Prize Candle, and of course I love it, but for this part of my post I am speaking with my customer hat on. I will tell you about the candles toward the end of the post.
Customer Service
I am HUGE on good customer service. In my opinion, if I am spending money somewhere that you work, be nice to me. It’s because of people like me, who shop where you work, that you are getting a paycheck. When I was managing the bank, I used to my team to treat EVERY customer like they signed their paycheck, because, without them, we do not get one.
I have only had to deal with Prize Candle’s customer service twice, but both times were easy, they were sweet, went out of their way, and made me hang up the phone feeling like I was a valued customer. I always appreciate being treated like my issues matters and working to get my issues resolved.
Appraise Your Prize Candle Prize
You can apprise your prize on their website. I love that I can visit their website, put in a number, and know how much my ring is worth.
NEW Prize Packaging
I recently received another candle to review. Once the wax was melted enough to grab my prize out I noticed something plastic, I was thinking it was going to be a huge ring lol. WRONG, it is their new packaging. I love it, it helps keep your ring nice and clean. I don’t know if you have tried to get jewelry out of a candle, but getting wax off a ring is not easy. The new packaging is fabulous, and you will find a picture of it in my review below.
Great Gift Idea for Her
Whether you are looking for a great Mother’s Day gift idea, or just a gift idea for her, Prize Candles are great. They are unique, smell amazing, and they have a ring valued at $10 or more. I mean think about it, these candles are like cracker jacks for women. I know there are women who do not like candles, but there are plenty who do, and the fact that there is a ring inside just makes it so much fun.
Monthly Club
If you have not tried Prize Candle, when you sign up with their monthly club you can save $10 on our first candle. I personally love their monthly club, every month I get a new candle, have the opportunity to enjoy exclusive season scents, and hey I get a prize in every candle valued from $10 to $5000. For me, it works out great.
Sales
I also am signed up for Prize Candles Newsletter, which fills me in about everything they have going on, including SALES! I don’t know about you, but I love sales. Every time I turn around Prize Candle has some type of sale, save 10%, and 20% there.

Oh, and right now you can get FREE Shipping when you use code JENNFREESHIP at check out. You cannot go wrong with that! Now, let’s put the blogger hat on, and let me tell you about the awesome candle I received.
I recently had the opportunity to review one of their Escape candle, which smells great. I am not a fan of the whole powerful floral scent. It almost makes me want to sneeze the entire time I have it burning. Escape has a light floral scent, combined with pineapple, peach, undertones of vanilla, and a hint of island spice. I think the scents complement one another well, it’s not too powerful, but it leaves my house smelling clean and fresh.
I am already a fan of Prize Candle; this is my third review for them, I have also been a customer since they opened. I have always been a satisfied customer, which makes me a repeat customer.
Prize Candles are 9 ounces of all natural soy wax, produced in the USA, all the soy is domestically grown. They also use 100% cotton vegetable dipped wicks, and each of their 9 ounce candles are designed to burn for up to 60 hours.
When I first received my candle, I opened the box, and started to burn that bad boy. It’s bittersweet, because it takes a while to get to the prize. I guess, it’s a good thing, my house smells better longer, but I also want my prize, lol. I feel like a little kid again, and my mom will not let me dig the prize out of the cereal box. I just have to wait until the prize ends up in someone’s bowl of cereal, lol. Oh, and when my daughter came home from school she mentioned how good it smelled, and asked if I had a new candle. It wasn’t 30 minutes, I noticed my candle was not in the living room. I already knew it was Catie. She does it all the time, it’s a war. I want my house to smell good, Catie “borrows” my candles to make her room smell good.
I know some of you might be wondering how the whole prize deal works. Under the soy wax is a ring valued from $10 to $5000, and once your candle burns down far enough you will start to see the prize packaging. Next you will want to remove the packaging, which can get a little messy so have a paper towel close by, and definitely use tweezers or something of that nature. Since getting wax on my hands drives me crazy, as soon as I get the prize package out I set it on the paper towel and wipe off as much wax, and it’s time to open your prize!
The ring I received in my Escape candle is pretty. Normally, when a ring isn’t my style I give it to Catie, but this one I told her she could wear, because I really like it. It’s pretty, not too flash, and its turquoise.
So who is wondering how much my ring was worth? It was valued at $25, I love the ring, if the ring fits, and you like it WEAR IT! My youngest daughter wanted to show it off a little, after she examined it of course lol.

These are the best candles they last a long time and smell awesome
I love these rings and the plastic case is genius!!
I didn’t know you could find out the value of your prize from their site. That is very good.
these are so fun.the candles smell wonderful and I love getting the prize.
I know right… I just LOVE Prize Candle.. The prize is AWESOME right!
Hi! This is such a neat idea! I also like that you can go to their website & find out the value of the ring. The one you have is super cute too. Thank-you
Love these candles although I’ve never had one that one be the case for long. If I don’t win one I’ll buy one. My household loves candles and we go through a ton of them every year so winning just one makes a difference cost wise.
I love that the jewelry can be appraised on the website and the great customer service.
Hubby and I LOVE candles and always have at least one burning at all times of the day! I’ve never heard of this company but will check it out after the review. Awesome discount for 25% off…thanks!
Your daughter sounds like mine! I can just picture her talking me out of the ring 😀 She wouldn’t even have to say anything b/c she has the puppy dog eye technique mastered! She just works her apple-cheeks and eyes on me and I’m a goner. We have dubbed it “cuteness currency.” She loves jewelry and scented stuff. She puts my perfume on her pulse points after she showers.
Anyway…I love that you can appraise the ring right away on their site and that it is packaged securely within the candle. I’m loving the candle-of-the-month program. Maybe you should sign your daughter up so she doesn’t keep stealing yours.
Ah, I wondered how the ring was packaged in the candle, lol. In a plastic bag is a good thing! Very pretty ring, btw.
That ring is gorgeous! I myself prefer scentsy but they are pretty expensive. Cracker Jacks for women! ha ha! I never thought of these candles like that before.
I love & enjoy he scents of Prize Candles.
Omg how cool !!! Love the idea of these candles 🙂 I hope to win one cause I’m a sucker for candles lol and the rings must be so cute !!
I would love to win a prize candle! I have heard so much about them & I love candles!
I love candles and candles with a ring inside my favorite!! They are such a lovely and fun gift! I like the way they package the ring for less of a chance of getting wax on it!
I like the size of the 9oz. candle. It is just the right amount of melt before getting to the good stuff!
I absolutely love this idea! I bet this would be a great fundraiser just for the anticipation of the surprise in the candle!
I haven’t tried these candles yet, but I have girlfriends that have and they love them! Keeping my fingers crossed on this giveaway.
What a cool concept. I love that it is made in the USA and is made out of soy.
I love the treasure hunt you get with these candles. Such a great concept.
Sadly, I haven’t had the chance to try prize candles, but I honestly really want to. I hear so many stories about how cool they are! I’m jealous! ;P
I am so excited by these candles! I like to burn candles, but it is even more special with a surprise inside!
I have not tried a candle from Prize Candles yet, but I am really looking forward to trying their candles. Thank you for this review and for sharing all of this great information.
I had never heard of Prize Candles before. Look like fun.
I love all candles! What a wonderful bonus to get a ring, too!!!
I haven’t had a candle in several years and would really like to have one. Especially if theres a ring in it!
I read about the candles and it looks as if they would smell good.But,
darn I just missed to win.
Love prize candles and would love to win one.
I love my prizes from Prize candles! And now my boyfriend FINALLY ordered one for me!! Good! I was getting tired of sending it “to Me from Me with love”!!!
I love that they have an appraisal. I want to win one soo bad. These are totally popular right now.
I never heard of prize candles and would like to win.
Wow! I have never heard of Prize Candles and I am incredibly intrigued! I absolutely LOVE candles always have a few burning in the house. The idea of a prize at the bottom is so awesome and inventive! Especially a beautiful ring. 🙂 I am definitely going to look into buying one, or a couple for myself! 😉
I hadn’t heard of prize candles before -but you have me beyond intrigued 🙂 Good customer service is a MUST for me not that I expect problems but love knowing when there is one it will be properly addressed)I also think its pretty cool that they will appraise your “prize” (shoot its pretty cool to get a prize in a candle-I never have -better than cracker jacks) Yur daughter is so cute-looks like she likes the prizes too
This is a perfect idea! Candles and jewelry all in one, love it!
These are nice candles hope i win
I can’t even express how badly I want one of these candles! I think it is such a great (and so fun!) idea that they put a beautiful ring in every one! My daughter would also get a kick out of waiting for the candle to melt so she can get the pretty ring at the bottom! I may have to go ahead and buy one, I’m not sure I can wait (and the buy one, get one coupon is very tempting!)!
this is a great idea,maybe i should start my own small business and make soy scented candles,and goats milk soaps. i thought about it for a while and just may do it! very nice!!
would love to win I have been wanting to try their candles
I would love to win one of these!
I like the idea of jewelry or gift cards in these candles. Great idea!! Hope I win!!
I keep trying to win one of these. I love that you don’t have to pay for an appraisal to find out the value of the ring. I hope to win one some day!
I love the idea of prize candles, and I’ve wanted one for a while! The rings are so pretty, and who doesn’t love candles?! I go through a lot of candles, but they don’t have rings in them, so it might be time to change that!
Love Candles and Love Jewelry….perfect combination
i had no idea they appraised the jewelry on their site. that’s so helpful
This is the neatest thing – getting a great candle and then finding jewelry in it as well. A prize inside! Sure beats Cracker Jacks! LOL!
I bought a candle similar to these. I got a ring out of it but had to take it to a jeweler to find out it was only worth $10. And I had to pay to find that out. I think it is great that you can go to their website and find out how much your new ring is. Will definitely be ordering one, two, three, who knows. But still hope I can win one. Always nice to win a prize, especially a two-for-one prize.
I love prize candles. I was very disappointed however when I got the same ring in both candles I ordered. I am not sure how that happened but I won’t order 2 candles at the same time again.
I love that this is such a huge giveaway! Make this the 11th thing you may not know. If this time around I don’t win one, a grown woman will cry! Kidding of course!
