About Us
At Crooked River Candle, we believe life’s everyday moments deserve a little extra warmth and beauty. Since 2021, our family-run business has been handcrafting small-batch candles, soaps, and sustainable gifts right here in Twinsburg, Ohio.
Every product is made with care—using premium fragrances and essential oils—and is always phthalate-free, paraben-free, lead-free, non-toxic, vegan, and cruelty-free. We want you to enjoy a candle that burns clean, lasts long, and fills your home with fragrance you’ll love from the first light to the very last.
This journey began while I was running a corporate gift company and noticed how hard it was to find candles that were both beautiful and well-made. Most were either overpriced, low quality, or full of chemicals. As a lover of science, math, and creativity, I decided to try making my own.
What started as an experiment quickly grew into a passion—and eventually a business inspired by the nearby Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Its winding “Crooked River” and peaceful trails remind me to slow down, stay inspired, and pour that same feeling into every product we create.
Today, that spirit lives in all we do—candles in upcycled wine bottles and rustic tins, soaps paired with bamboo savers, and gift sets wrapped in reusable crates, boxes, and burlap. Everything we make is designed to be both thoughtful and sustainable.
Whether you’re treating yourself, looking for a meaningful gift, or exploring custom and corporate options, we’re so glad you found us.
With gratitude,
Jennifer Koran

"I recently received one of your candles as a gift and my wife and I absolutely loved it. The scent lasted much longer than most other candles we've used, and lingers for a long time in our home! The Cranberry Preserves scent reminded us of a couple of our local orchards."
