Specialty Food Association

Chocolate Candles to Light and Eat Now Available in all Publix, Mariano’s and Roundy’s

Let Them Eat Candles® (LTEC), the award-winning edible chocolate birthday candles from Glencoe Studio LLC, are now in Bakery Departments at all 1200+ Publix locations, and all 140+ Mariano’s and Roundy’s Kroger locations.

Home baking and the return to nostalgia in CPG were well-documented consumer responses to the pandemic. But customers also sought joyful experiences and enhanced opportunities to celebrate. Publix and Kroger delivered.

Edible chocolate candles, a novel, memorable all-ages and gift-able treat are individually packaged with a SRP of $2.99.

“Our custom displays educate and engage consumers who are already planning celebrations,” noted Bob Michelson, LTEC Managing Director. “Bakery counters are historically underutilized spaces, so it’s a great value proposition.”

Have a Publix or Kroger cake, and Let Them Eat Candles®, too!
