What kind of candle are you looking for? How about...

• Scented candles (coconut, gardenia, grape, lemon, jasmine, and many other fragrances)
• Candles that look like food (banana splits, ice cream sundaes, cupcakes—even cheeseburgers with lettuce and tomato)
• Seasonal candles (Easter bunnies, turkeys, Christmas trees, and Halloween pumpkins, depending upon the time of year)
• Decorative candles of every shape and size
• Traditional, elegant taper candles

Unlike the flowers at the Main Street Flower Mart next door, these candles aren’t made of plastic. They’re made of wax, so they’re fully functional.

In Disneyland, the Candle Shop occupied a space just behind the Upjohn Pharmacy (today the New Century Timepieces shop), off West Center Street. Some time between the late 1970s and the late 1980s, the Candle Shop became just a memory.
