Planning a candlelit dinner with your loved one? Chill your candles in the freezer 12 hours ahead. They'll illuminate your table twice as long.
Candles create the perfect romantic, cozy vibe your partner will love. But keeping them lit all evening? That's where my reliable trick comes in: the freezer.
Freezing candles for 12 hours beforehand hardens the wax, so it melts much more slowly.
The result? They burn 2x longer. For even better results, sprinkle coarse salt grains at the wick's base to slow its consumption.
From there, let your imagination take over—enjoy the evening!
Candlelit evenings, romantic or casual, always warm up my table. Over time, this adds up to real savings.
How much exactly?
A box of 6 candles costs €4. At one box per month, that's nearly €50 a year. My trick doubles their life—like getting them at 50% off, saving around €25. Bonus: lower electricity bills too.
