Cute candles shaped like a female torso. Furthermore, they are based on Greek goddesses. Consider Athena and Aphrodite. Tatjana, 21, started a small business during the crazy COVID times. It was a spontaneous idea that began with a mould, old candles, and creativeness.

Tatjana is a young student with a small business. It is a hobby she pursues in addition to her studies, but she clearly enjoys it. It all started during the first lockdown, when Tatjana purchased a candle mould. She melted old candles she still had in the house in that mould, and it formed into a candle. A candle shaped like a woman's torso. As a memorial, she placed that candle in her living room so she could always remember where she began.

Tatjana's first candle

Her company name, Illa, has an interesting backstory. That can be seen in the video I made with Tatjana about Illa Candle. She describes how she started her company and how it is now. How does she manage to make those candles and do everything herself? What are her future objectives for Illa Candle?
