Limited-edition Funke x Flamingo Estate Candle — lighting the fresh, citric, and herbaceous air of Italian gardens.
Chef Evan Funke is a native Angeleno, custodian of Italian food in LA, and considered one of the best pasta makers in America. His restaurants — Mother Wolf, Felix, and Funke — are among the best in our city and the world. And for years, we’ve fragranced their locations with the unequivocal air that swirls through the Mediterranean. During Evan's take over of our Farm Box, we’re hand-pouring a limited batch of these intoxicating Italian scent bombs for you.
The moment you step through Funke’s doors, you’re hit with a complex aroma of sun-warmed earth mixed with salt breeze. Bursting citrus and herbal Tuscan ruins. It’s the Italian countryside, captured in a custom Candle with wild throw. Hand-poured with the uplifting and zesty aroma of Neroli flowers, herbaceous Clary Sage, and freshly picked Spearmint.
This Candle joins a month-long collaboration with Chef Evan Funke: curator of our September Farm Boxes. A portion of proceeds from this limited run of Funke Candles will go to Baby2Baby, a non-profit providing the basic necessities every child deserves.

Candle Care
When burning your candle for the first time, allow it to burn for 2 to 3 hours, until the top layer of the wax has completely melted. This will prevent the wax from tunneling around the wick. When burning the candle after the first burn, do not let it burn for over 3 hours at a time.
Ideally, we recommend keeping the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch at all times to prevent the candle from emitting smoke or the wick falling into the wax.
After each burn, see that the wick is centered in the wax. This will also ensure that the glass does not overheat. The wick and flame should never be touching the glass. When approaching the end of the candle, leave ¼ inch of wax unburned and ensure you are not burning the candle for more than 3 hours. The glass can get overheated without the presence of wax and break.
Our candles are packaged in boxes with an FSC certification, which means they were made using materials from responsibly managed forests, including some recycled paper products.
The soy wax in our candles is non-GMO and grown in the USA.
