bika Candles - a family history of 55 years of handmade candles !
Our candles originated in Denmark in 1969. They were originally made as gifts for friends but their exceptional quality soon convinced many others. Two sisters: Ingrid and Maria Buytaert, produced their line in Belgium and Germany respectively. In 2018, the production of both collections was moved to Ghent, Belgium under the name bika Candles. Inge-Lise, Ingrid's daughter, continues both lines.
The two collections - Smooth and Iced - count some 50 colours each. The Smooth Collection (previously produced by Maria Buytaert Kerzen Vertrieb) feature bright, vibrant colours and has a plain surface. The Iced Collection contains more earthy colours and intermediate shades and has a striking line pattern on the side of the candle. The Scented Candle Collection, with its signature scents and matching colours, rounds it all off.
Besides the rich range of colours, our candles curl open like a flower when lit. Be surprised by the unique character of our candles.
