Anyone can go to the store to pick up a candle, but it takes a special one for it to really feel personalized. One way to do that is by heading to Etsy to see what one-of-a-kind pieces are out there, like the ones 716 Candle Co. makes. Its Coca-Cola and Diet Coke candles certainly warrant quite the reaction.
There are a few things that make these soda-inspired candles special, first starting with the appearance. The soy candles are hand-poured into actual soda cans, so they’re upcycled pieces. Not only that, but the candles themselves smell like cola. You won’t find this sorcery in a store.

Etsy shop 716 Candle Co. is the same one that makes the Mountain Dew- and Dr Pepper-scented candles, which have become bestsellers. The shop has over 12,500 sales with extremely high ratings. We don’t know how their scents are so spot-on, but it’s scary-good.
“I can’t believe how much like Diet Coke this candle actually smells! I’m so impressed! Bought this for a friend who will love it. Packaged great, arrived in perfect condition, looks good + shipping quickly. Would recommend to anyone!” one buyer wrote. “Looks really cool and smells great too. Giving it as a gift to a fellow Diet Coke lover,” wrote another.
You can order the Coca-Cola and Diet Coke candles on Etsy for $15.95 each. They’re approximately 9 to 11 ounces and will burn for over 40 hours. Warning: Burning these candles will have you instantly reaching for the actual soda.
