Bath and Body Works Sweet Shop Collection

Hello Everyone!


Last month I was so excited when Bath and Body Works re-released the Sweet Shop Candle Colletion right before Christmas. In 2014 (I think that's the right year), this collection was released and the company decided to bring it back. I didn't get anything the first time around, but I didn't want to make the same mistake twice!

Bath and Body Works Sweet Shop Collection


 Pink Bubblegum, Frosted Cupcake, and Lavender Marshmallow 


Raspberry Peach Macaron, Honey Cinnamon Crumb Cake, Pineapple Cream Puff


Strawberry Sorbet 
*The photos I took in the store were taken during Christmastime. I captured 7 out of the 8 candles released in the collection except for Lemon Drops while I was in the store.


Frosted Cupcake



Description 

A true sweet tooth's delight! Fresh vanilla bean, sugar, cake batter and rich buttercream frosting, mixed up to create an irresistible scent.

My Thoughts 

Frosted Cupcake smells just like its name,  frosted cupcake. On a cold sniff I smell a vanilla scent mixed with buttercream. The candle doesn't smell over sweet on a cold sniff, but this candle does smell like cake batter. I've heard and read reviews that the throw on this candle is weak. I hope not because if the throw is weak... back to the store these candles will go lol. I'll probably do an update once I burn one of these candle.

Lemon Drops 



Description 

That magnificent mouth-puckering mixture of sweet and tart is captured in this blend of fresh Lemon Zest, Sugar Crystals and a hint of Vanilla

My Thoughts 

Lemon Drops where have you been all my life?! Seriously this is my favorite candle from the Sweet Shop Collection. I don't smell the hint of vanilla, but I smell the lemon zest and sugar crystals. This candle smells wonderful and the throw is moderate. I get more of sweet than tart scent which I like. I think that's why I didn't get some of the other candles because they had more of a tart scent and I wanted more of a sweet scent.

Did you get anything from the Sweet Shop Collection?

I haven’t seen or heard of this collection until I saw you post about these!! Lemon drop sounds nice, so does the cupcake one! I’d definitely like to smell the strawberry sorbet, raspberry peach macaroon, and honey cinnamon one!

I haven´t bought scented candles in more than a year, i try to work my way through my collection at the moment as i wasn´t able to burn them when the kids were smaller.

Lemon Drop smells so good! It's my favorite candle from the collection!

Pilar said...

Thanks, and you're welcome!

I really like both candles. I love that Lemon Drops doesn't have an artificial smell or at least I don't think so. A fresh sweet scent lemon is what I smell.

Pilar said...

Thanks!

Pilar said...

I stocked up on Lemon Drops! I want afew more of the Frosted Cupcake Candles, but I need to burn one first to make sure the throw is moderate.

Pilar said...

Thanks!

I love BBW candles, I have been good and not purchased any this year but I may have to after reading this lol.

I went to Bath and Body Works right before Christmas, but didn't buy anything. Look at all the colors, and the strawberry sorbet sounds dreamy. Oh, I love candles, and have them all around the house.

Have a lovely Sunday, Pilar.

These candles smell wonderful! I don't get too many Fall candles since I don't pumpkins and I have a few select candles I look forward too during the Winter. I was really surprised to see this collection return and be out so soon. My favorite time of year to go candle shopping at B&BW is late Spring/Summer.

Pilar said...

The two candles I got from this collectiob smell so nice! Strawberry Sorbet and Raspberry Peach Macaron smell good too, but more of a tart than sweet scent. I was thinking about getting one of each when I was in the store, but my Lemon Drops obsession took over lol! Idk what it is about the honey candles. I really don't like them all too much and sadly Honey Cinnamon Crumb Cake was no different. If it didn't have that honey scent I probably would like it more. I love honey, but I guess not so much in candle form lol!

Pilar said...

I love candles too! I liked the Strawberry Sorbet Candle when I smelled it in the store, but I wish it had more of a sweet scent. I still think I might try it. Have a great week Sheri!

Pilar said...

You're welcome!

Kristen Alpert said...

Again great post. I'm on a sweet overload on candles. Lol. Can't wait to see how big your collection gets.

Pilar said...

Thanks! Sweet candles are some my favorite candles! I'm hoping to stock up on more candles with the Spring and Summer releases!
