Tonight I am melting Candles By Victoria’s Lemon Meringue Pie. As I have stated before I am a huge fan of lemon scents. I figured since I am sitting at home, waiting for the next band of showers to hit us, I would melt away my tarts and take my mind off of the nasty weather that will be on and off all night long.
I love pie. There I said it. It can be creamy, fruity, cold, hot, custardy…it doesn’t matter. I figured I would try CBV’s Lemon Meringue Pie while I sipped on hot tea. Its got a fabulous tart/tang/bite to it. The bright and tangy citrus is perfectly blended with bakery. If you like the real deal then you will know what I am talking about. When the custard gets back in your mouth and hits your tongue right where your taste buds register tart to the brain. Sweet tart goodness. SUGARY sweet tart goodness! I love light and fluffy meringue too! Just absolute awesomeness. I have tried several versions of this in candle form by other companies….cheap candles I find at my local stores. You know, the ones you pick up because really it’s $5 so maybe it will surprise me and if not…..it was only $5. Each one is a disappointment. Might smell like it would be good when it has a wax pool but once it’s lit, you get nothing. Not this time. I will, from now on, save my money and purchase this in a candle and more scent shots.
If you are a lover of the lemon, then you should give this a try. =)

emon Meringue from Kim's the other day and it arrived in the mail today. I am so excited about this tart because I have been looking for a fabulous Lemon Meringue candle/tart. Something sweet, sour, tangy, creamy...just like the pies I make for the 4th of July or just for a summer treat. Lemon Meringue is one of my all time favorite scents and none of the store bought candles that I have purchased have it down. They either have a great cold throw but when I burn it there isn't any fragrance. Now, I haven't really been searching high or low for it...just whenever I would come across a lemon meringue I bought it just to try it out and it couldn't cost more then 10 bucks. $1.50 for three tarts and I have it.....I found it! This is what I was looking for this whole time!
When I first opened the plastic I didn't think it had a strong throw. I was worried that I wasn't going to get a whole lot from this scent. I was super surprised! AMAZING! Starting with the tart and tangy lemon custard, hits your tongue and makes your taste buds say WHOA...is this sweet or sour? Both my friend...both....so bright and zesty with the creamy vanilla, sugar and egg whites to make fluffy meringue. Dissolves in your mouth but complements the lemon custard. Delish....I just want to cut a slice of this pie.
I am very pleased with this and will be making another order to Kim's when I am finished trying all of my new tarts. I have only used 1 and I'm worried I am going to run out before I get more! If you want to purchase this fabulous scent click on this link --> Kim's Tart Candles
