Melbourne – With the smell and look of great-looking food and sweets, a person would think they are in a high-end bakery. Everywhere you turn in this unique bakery, you can see some of the most delicious-looking food all in one place. From tropical drinks to hot buttered pancakes. Buttered popcorn in a bowl of Fruit Loops, it all looks like you can sit down to a great meal. However, you don’t want to eat these meals. Everything is made of wax.
Almost Edible Candles, located in Melbourne, Florida, was created by Will Therrin, who is not only a professional candle maker but also a candle baker. The taste-tempting creations that he makes not only look good but also smell like what they look like. Each individual creation is handcrafted with exact detail, making each a unique piece of art.
"Not merely candle makers, but 'Candle Makers' creating works of 'heart'"! -- Wil Therrin
Each and every weekend, you can see him in his candle bakery making these creations with all the detail of top chefs. Customers by the thousands stop to watch Will work on these works of art. With the amazement of children, people watch as these wonderfully smelling and looking candles get made.
After making candles for over 50 years, Will has made food-looking candles an art form that looks and smells like your favorite foods. Just by looking into his kitchen, you can see all the tools of his trade, most of which look like any other kitchen. Rest assured, even though it looks and smells like food you don’t want to eat, the strawberry shortcake is. You can, however, light it up and enjoy the glow and smell.
Located at The Renninger's Flea and Farmers Market, open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
