Wax melts are small scented pieces of wax that are melted in a wax burner using a tea light or electric heat source to release fragrance into a room. Unlike candles, they do not have a wick — the wax releases scent through gentle heat without burning.

How do you use wax melts?

Place one or two wax melt pieces into the dish of a wax burner, then light a tea light underneath (or switch on an electric burner). The wax melts gently and releases its fragrance into the room. When the scent fades, allow the wax to cool and solidify, then remove and replace.

What wax melts does Bumble Living sell?

Bumble Living stocks a wide and regularly updated range of Freckleface soya wax melts, in floral, fruity, fresh, musky and warm seasonal blends, including seasonal Christmas designs.

Can I mix and match wax melt scents?

Yes — Bumble Living offers a Wax Melt Pick & Mix, letting you build your own pack of 10 wax melts choosing any combination of scents. Simply add your favourites to your basket; a running total shows how many more you need to complete your Pick & Mix pack.

How long do wax melts last?

Each wax melt can potentially provide up to 20 hours of scent, depending on the burner used and room size. Many wax melts can be reused a few times before the scent fades. Individual product listings give specific guidance for each melt.

Are wax melts safer than candles?

Wax melts are often considered a safer alternative to candles, as the wax itself does not burn — only the tea light or electric element beneath. There is no open flame in direct contact with the scented wax, reducing the risk of soot or residue. Always follow burner safety guidelines.

Are wax melts suitable as gifts?

Yes — wax melts are sold individually and in gift sets, making an affordable and popular gift, especially paired with one of Bumble Living's wax burners. Free UK delivery is available on orders over £35.
