Our Story
​
Located in our home city of Auckland, Coco Kisses is known for its enticing coconut-scented candles. However, this is not your typical candle! Our candles are encased in a sustainably sourced coconut shell. As well as that, we have also given everyone a surprise crystal bracelet which we hope will act as a reminder for you to prioritise your mental health and take care of yourself. As a business, we have the aim of bettering your lives and mental health and want to positively impact our community, hence why we have decided to donate 15% of our profits towards the mental health charity 'I Am Hope'.
​
Each candle is handmade with love and with care for both our customers and the environment. We have chosen to use high-quality and natural ingredients, to promote your health and well-being with our customers at the frontmost part of our minds. We make our candles with 100% natural New Zealand soy wax and are naturally fragranced with fragrance oils. We have chosen to use a wooden wick in our candles which enables a cleaner burn with minimal soot, carbon and debris buildup.
​
What began as a simple school business project has ignited a passion for candles. ​We aim to sell high-quality candles to our customers that will help you to relax and destress yourselves. There is a large amount of research linking to the many benefits of candles and we would like you to experience these through our product.
​
Coco Kisses is one of New Zealand's newest candle brands, but with an added touch of paradise through our recycled coconut shell. Our overall goal is to improve the mental health of the community through our product and approach candles in a more sustainable way. Not only does our bracelet promote mental wellness, but our customers will be able to stop their busy lives and take time for themselves by relaxing using the candle. We use materials that are natural, sustainable and will cause no harm to the community or environment, and instead have a more positive impact through sourcing them as locally as possible. New Zealanders can now experience the luxury of candles through this different approach.
