WHY COCONUT & RAPESEED WAX?

The wax inside your candle matters just as much as the fragrance — which is why we choose a premium coconut & rapeseed wax blend for our Brooke & Bean candles.

✨ Superior scent throw — our wax holds and releases fragrance beautifully, creating a rich scent that fills your space.

🕯️ A beautiful, clean burn — carefully formulated to give the smooth, even performance we expect from a premium candle.

🌱 Plant-based & renewable — coconut and rapeseed are renewable resources, giving us a more environmentally conscious alternative to traditional paraffin wax.

🤍 That luxury finish — smooth, creamy and beautifully understated. It looks every bit as gorgeous as it smells.

We could use cheaper wax. We choose not to.

Because when you’re buying a Brooke & Bean candle, we want everything from the wax and fragrance to the final pour to feel considered, premium and made to be enjoyed.

A beautiful candle deserves a little care 🤎

Getting the best from your Brooke & Bean candle isn’t just about lighting it and letting it burn. A few simple habits can help your candle burn more evenly, stay cleaner and give you the best fragrance experience possible.

✂️ Trim your wick to around 6mm before every burn
🔥 Let the wax reach the edges on that all-important first burn
⏰ Never burn for longer than 4 hours at a time
🕯️ Leave around 1cm of wax at the bottom and know when it’s time to say goodbye
🏡 Keep away from draughts, radiators and direct sunlight
✨ Then simply sit back and enjoy it.

Save this post for your next candle burn — and send it to that friend who definitely has a wick that needs trimming! 👀

🌿 MEET THE MAKER | The Thoughtful Parcel 🌿

We thought it was time to reintroduce you to one of the lovely independent businesses you’ll find tucked away on our shelves at Brooke & Bean — The Thoughtful Parcel. 🤎

If you love beautiful stationery (or know someone who does!), these are such a gorgeous find.

Each parcel features a beautifully curated book presented as a stunning gift set, ready for its new owner to make completely their own.

Fill it with thoughts and memories. Use it as a journal or sketchbook. Scribble down ideas, make plans, keep notes, write your dreams… or save it for those thoughts you simply want to put somewhere special. ✍️📖

There are no rules — and I think that’s what makes them such a thoughtful gift.

We love being able to give other small businesses a little space inside our shop, so next time you visit, take a wander around and discover The Thoughtful Parcel for yourself.

✨ Available in store now at Brooke & Bean
📍 31 Northgate, Cleckheaton
Tuesday–Saturday | 10am–4pm

And remember, when you shop from one of our rental shelves, you’re supporting another independent small business too. ❤️

4,600 of you! 🥹🤎

It might just look like a number on Facebook, but when we stop and think that over 4,600 people have chosen to follow our little Yorkshire business, it feels pretty special.

Every follow, comment, share, recommendation and person who pops into the shop because they’ve seen us on here helps more than you probably realise. It allows our little business to keep growing, keeps our workshop busy and means we get to carry on doing something we genuinely love.

So whether you’ve been here from the early days, found us at a market, wandered into the shop or only followed us this week — thank you for being here. ❤️

And I have a little favour to ask…

If you have a friend who loves handmade goodies, beautiful home fragrance, ridiculously good-smelling soap or supporting independent businesses, tag them below and introduce them to Brooke & Bean. 👇

Who knows… maybe we can get this little community to 5,000 next. 🥹🤎

Thank you, all 4,600 of you. 🍂

How gorgeous are these?!

We’ve had a full restock from the fabulous Churchill-Chintz today and I genuinely don’t know which ones I’d choose.

The prints and cards are absolutely stunning, and the new framed pieces are VERY much up my street. I can already picture several of them coming home with me… occupational hazard of having beautiful things delivered to the shop.

If you’re looking for something a little different for your walls, a lovely gift, or just fancy a browse, call into the shop and take a look at the new collection in person. There are so many gorgeous designs to discover. 🤎

Now the important question… which one would you take home? 👇

🍂 RIGHT… WHO’S ALREADY IN FULL AUTUMN MODE?! 🎃

Because apparently you lot are just as ready for cosy season as we are… our Autumn candles are already flying out of the door! 😂🕯️

And if you’re a wax melt person, you’re going to want to get yourself into the shop because we’ve just given the Pick & Mix a proper Autumn top-up, including some limited-edition seasonal fragrances that won’t be hanging around forever. 👀

Come in, grab a bag and build your own perfect autumn scent stash. Think cosy evenings, blankets, fires lit, darker nights and a house that smells ridiculously good. 🤎🍁

The full Autumn Collection is in store now, but judging by how quickly some of those candles are disappearing, I wouldn’t leave your favourites too long!

Well this wasn’t on the market-day bingo card… 🤣

Just casually minding our stall when Star Wars on Tour appeared! 😂

But can we PLEASE talk about the tiny Chewbacca?! 🥹 Honestly, I can’t cope with how cute he is.

Never a dull day when we’re out and about with Brooke & Bean! 😂❤️

My absolute favourite time of year has arrived… cosy season! 🍂🤎

The Autumn fragrances are officially on the shelves and I am completely here for it. Candles burning, blankets out, darker evenings, fires lit and the house smelling incredible… this is my kind of season. 🔥🕯️

If you’re ready to embrace all things cosy too, pop into the shop and have a sniff through the Autumn Collection — available in store now! 🎃🍁
