I made my first sale within two weeks of starting. I genuinely didn't expect to be selling that fast, but the launch plan module made it feel doable.
Limited time launch price $39 (instead of $399) — Save $360!

⭐ What students say
Real words from real makers
Olivia Tremblay
Montreal, Canada
★★★★★
Honestly, I would've happily paid several hundred dollars for this. The recipes and calculators alone are worth more than what I paid for the whole thing.
Aoife Byrne
Cork, Ireland
★★★★★
This started as a hobby to keep me busy on weekends, and now I'm actually getting orders from people I've never met. Still feels a bit surreal.
Zofia Nowak
Krakow, Poland
★★★★★
The course basically paid for itself because I stopped wasting supplies on failed batches. Learning the formulas properly saved me so much wax and money.
Camila Hernández
Guadalajara, Mexico
★★★★★
The Instagram and TikTok lessons finally got people interested in my candles. My reels actually get views now instead of sitting at twelve likes.
Camille Dubois
Lyon, France
★★★★★
I wasted so much wax before this course. Once I learned how to actually test properly, my candles finally burned clean and evenly every single time.
Emily Carter
Austin, USA
★★★★★
I had never made a candle before this course. Now I'm making ones I'm genuinely proud of, and my kitchen counter has basically become my little studio.
Elin Andersson
Gothenburg, Sweden
★★★★★
Everything I'd spent months trying to piece together from random articles online was already organized here in one place. It saved me so much guesswork.
Chloe Mitchell
Brisbane, Australia
★★★★★
I never felt overwhelmed because everything was explained in the right order. Craft first, then pricing, then marketing, exactly when I was ready for each part.
Lena Schmidt
Munich, Germany
★★★★★
For the first time I actually feel like I have a business instead of just making candles. Knowing my real numbers changed everything about how I price and plan.
Lucía Fernández
Valencia, Spain
★★★★★
I used to guess at my prices and always felt unsure at markets. Now I know my real costs and margins, and I can quote a wholesale order without panicking.
Hannah Whitfield
Denver, USA
★★★★★
I took on a custom order for a friend's wedding after finishing the gift collections module, and it went so much smoother than I expected for my first big order.
Picture this: in 30 days you take your first orders. In 3 months, orders arriving every week. In 6 months — you're your own boss.
It isn't a dream. It's exactly what over 3200 people have done with this plan. The difference between them and you? They pressed a button. Today, while the price was still $39. This isn't really about candles — it's about financial freedom: working from home, on your own schedule, without depending on anyone.

First Floating Rose Candle
I never thought I'd be able to make something this elegant. It now sits on my dining table and everyone asks where I bought it.
Emma R.Manchester, UK
Strawberry Sundae Candle
I was nervous about piping wax at first, but the lessons made it surprisingly easy. This has become one of my favourite creations.
Sophia M.Toronto, Canada
Coastal Jar Candle
I collected shells from a family holiday and turned them into a candle I'll keep forever. The course gave me so many creative ideas.
Laura T.Gold Coast, Australia
Bloom in Glass
I made this as a gift for my mum and she couldn't believe it was handmade. Now I'm planning to start selling them locally.

💡 Why so many makers stall
You have pieces of a puzzle. What you need is the whole picture.
Learning this in fragments is the default — and it's the reason talented makers stay stuck at “expensive hobby” for years.
01
Craft before commerce
You get genuinely good at the wax first — consistent, testable, repeatable — because every price, photo and pitch later depends on a product that behaves the same way every time.
02
Numbers before marketing
You learn what to charge and why before you start driving traffic. Marketing an underpriced candle just helps you lose money faster.
03
A system you can sustain alone
Two channels, not seven. Batched content, not daily panic. Built for one person with a day job, not a team with a content manager.
Why start now?
Zero experience? Perfect.
Our step-by-step method guides you as if an expert were sitting beside you. Every temperature, every measurement, every step is written out.
Minimal investment, fast returns
You start with a modest supply list rather than a fitted-out studio. A single order can cover the cost of the whole course.
A market that never stops
Weddings and christenings, gifts, home decor, wellness. One wedding can mean 80–150 favors in a single order — and christenings run all year, so the orders aren't only at Christmas.

👋 Who's behind this
Ana Candle Academy
We help creative people turn candle making into a business they're proud of. Candle making is the easy part, you can find thousands of tutorials online. What most people never learn is how to price their products, choose the right materials, build a brand customers remember, and actually make consistent sales.
That's where Ana Candle Academy is different. Through practical, honest guidance and years of real experience, Ana teaches both the craft of beautiful candles and the business skills needed to build a profitable home-based brand, without the expensive mistakes, wasted batches, or endless guesswork.
“Making a beautiful candle is one skill. Making a beautiful candle that pays your bills is a completely different one — and it's the one nobody teaches.”
🧾 Honest fit check
This course isn't for everyone
We'd rather you skip it than buy it and find out it was the wrong thing.
✅ It's built for you if…
- You already make good candles but freeze at pricing, selling or marketing.
- You want a real side income built around a product you can hold.
- You're working from a kitchen counter and a modest budget.
🚫 It's not for you if…
- You want passive income without making anything. Candles are a craft; you'll be pouring.
- You won't test your candles. Testing is an important part of the process, and we say so repeatedly.

❓ Before you decide
Questions people ask first
Do I need any experience to start?
None. Section 1 starts with setting up a safe workspace on a kitchen
counter and a supply list that tells you what to buy, what to skip and what you
probably already own. If you're already making candles, there's a hobbyist path in
Lesson 1 that points you to the sections that close your specific gaps.
How do I access the course?
Everything lives in your own student portal. The moment your payment
clears you get a login by email, and inside you'll find all 19 modules and all 8
bonuses laid out in order — nothing is drip-fed and nothing is held back. The
portal keeps track of what you've completed, so you can stop halfway through a module
and pick up exactly where you left off. It works on a phone, a tablet or a laptop, so
you can read a lesson at the kitchen table and check a recipe on your phone at the
workbench. Your access is for life, including every future update.
How does the 30-Day Money Back Guarantee work?
We stand firmly behind the quality and practical value of our course. To provide complete peace of mind with your investment, every purchase is backed by our 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
If you experience technical issues accessing your student account, downloading the lesson files or if you're not happy with the results you're getting from this course, send us an email and we'll work with you through whatever roadblock you've hit. You are never left alone with it. If we cannot resolve the issue to your satisfaction, a complete refund will be issued.
If you experience technical issues accessing your student account, downloading the lesson files or if you're not happy with the results you're getting from this course, send us an email and we'll work with you through whatever roadblock you've hit. You are never left alone with it. If we cannot resolve the issue to your satisfaction, a complete refund will be issued.
Is this video or written?
It's in written PDF format for each module and you'll receive access to the full course via our e-learning platform. You can search it, re-read the tricky
part while your wax is melting, and print the bits you want on the bench — none of
which you can do with a video. Every lesson ends with one concrete action step, and
the Workbook gives you a place to record what happened.
How much will I need to spend on supplies?
Module 1.1 gives you a complete starter supply list split into what
you need on day one, what can wait, and what you likely already have in the kitchen.
It's built for a modest starting budget rather than a fully equipped studio, and it
tells you which upgrades are worth it later and which ones aren't.
How long does it take to get through?
That's up to you — everything unlocks at once and access is for life. Most people move faster through the sections they need and slower through the ones they're actively doing, because candle testing has its own timeline that no course can speed up.
Is this specific to one country's rules?
The craft, the math, the pricing and the marketing work anywhere.
Prices and examples are in US dollars, and the compliance lesson is built around US
labeling standards — but it's written as a checklist of what to look for, so you can
run the same four checks against your own local rules wherever you sell.
Will I be able to sell legally?
Module 1.1 Lesson 4 walks through the four things that stand between
you and a compliant first sale. It's a checklist you complete, not legal advice — always confirm the specifics for your own city/country.
Is there a subscription or any upsell after this?
No. One payment, everything included, lifetime access. There's no
advanced tier waiting behind another paywall and nothing to cancel later. Updates to
the course are free for everyone who's enrolled.
Why is it only $39?
This is a launch price. The regular price is $399, and what you pay today is locked in for life — including every future update. Hurry, this offer won't be up for a long time!
How quickly could I realistically start selling?
Honestly? That depends on you. Module 2.4 lays out a step-by-step path to your first sales.
