Bee Coco Candle

Clean Candles, Thoughtfully Made in Illinois
Non-toxic, soy-free candles you can feel good about lighting—safe for your home, your family, and your pets.

Our Story
Bee Coco Candle began as a “wild idea” retirement plan and quickly grew into a mission-driven small business. Founded by husband-and-wife team Eric and Noreen Francis in their Bartlett home, Bee Coco was created to solve a personal need: truly clean-burning candles.

Living with an autoimmune condition and sharing their home with a dog and two cats, Noreen struggled to find candles that didn’t cause sensitivities. Together, they set out to create a better, safer option.

What Makes Bee Coco Different
Every Bee Coco Candle is hand-poured in small batches using a premium coconut-apricot wax blend that is completely soy-free and free from parabens, phthalates, and harmful toxins. Our scents are thoughtfully crafted with essential-oil-infused fragrances that are Prop 65 compliant and pet-conscious, and we use lead-free cotton wicks for a cleaner burn.

Our minimalist jars are designed to be reused, because sustainability matters to us.

More Than Candles
Bee Coco Candle is about more than what we make—it’s also about what we support. Alongside our candles, we thoughtfully stock our shelves with products from like-minded makers who share our commitment to clean ingredients, ethical practices, and small-batch craftsmanship.
