Marcela’s line named Oh Comadre Candles offers a variety of aromas synonymous to the Latino culture, including Tamal de Elote, champurrado, flan, Vapo-Candle and so much more.

What started as a form of therapy from her nursing job, Marcela has grown a community of more than 50,000 followers on social media. Next to a photo of herself, the candle artisan shared her purpose for creating candles. “My mission is to create candles that evoke emotion, memories, or a laugh.

They celebrate life through a Latina’s eye, mine!” she added.
