What Is Let Them Eat Candles On Shark Tank?

Loree Sandler and her husband Bob Michelson came up with the idea of Let Them Eat Candles after their son’s 12th birthday party. Loree and Bob were holding their son’s birthday party when Loree watched the wax candles melting and puddling on the cake’s icing. She said this bothered her and she wanted to find a new candle to put on cakes that wouldn’t be quite so gross.

Loree began to study chocolate and pastry and took classes at Chicago’s French Pastry School as well as the Chocolate Academy. She created prototypes and tested out different wicks before she started studying more by taking more food business classes. Loree finally came up with the edible candles and began pitching them to bakeries.

She was a quick success, with Martha Stewart’s American Made contest giving her national recognition. Loree then found a manufacturing partner, ordered pre-cut wicks, and started using robotics equipment to mass-produce them, turning Let Them Eat Candles into a sustainable business. Let Them Eat Candles now sells its products in hundreds of stores nationwide.

Loree launched her company in 2016 on TheGrommet. It was growing until 2019 when her initial manufacturing partner was sold. The new owner dropped the product. However, she found a new manufacturer and continued. Let Them Eat Candles are made from premium milk and dark chocolate and are designed with architectural detail, making them look as good as they taste.
