Enjoy our classic beeswax tealight candles made from 100% pure New Zealand beeswax.
These tealights are the standard tealight size to fit your holder or wax melter.
Choose from our beautifully packaged boxes of six which are perfect for gifts, or our plain boxes now available in a range of pack sizes. For our true candle addicts, we even have a pack of 365 so you can enjoy warm, honey-scented candlelight every day of the year (we'll even throw in an extra candle on leap years).
Perfect fuel for your wax melt warmer, or enjoy for their own subtle honey scent and soft light.
Wonderful used in mass displays as accents for weddings and events where they add hours of warm, gentle light and atmosphere.
Important: tealights are supplied in reusable and recyclable aluminium cups. You can transfer into your own tealight holders but please be aware that tealights MUST be burnt in a close-fitting cup, as they are designed to fully liquify when burning. If the candle cup does not fit closely, wax will run away from the wick and the candle will burn out.
We ship worldwide from our home in Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

International Orders and Bee Products
We send our beeswax candles, wraps, DIY blend, and polishes worldwide and have never had a problem with border restrictions. Generally finished beeswax products are acceptable for import in most countries.
However, in some countries raw beeswax may not to be allowed in order to protect the health of their local bees. We get it. After all, Kev and Dee are beekeepers, first and foremost. On that basis, we opt to make our beeswax blocks and pellets available to New Zealand addresses only.
Some countries may have various border or import charges - please note that you will be responsible for any such charges.
What about packaging? Do you use plastic?
We're committed to eliminating plastic wherever we can - the clear bags our kits are packaged in are NOT plastic. They are genuine cellophane, made from vegetable cellulose and are fully biodegradable and home compostable.
And we're very happy to announce that the black courier bags we use are also NOT plastic! They are made from plants and are fully biodegradable, and home compostable. And, a little oddly, they smell like fresh toast, or maybe popcorn!
We offer the following payment options for your convenience:
Best beeswax tealight candles on the market!
Last 3-4 hours. The candles burn bright and clean throughout the time they're alight - only tealights I now purchase. Support small NZ businesses. Highly recommend

I love the mellow, steady burn, knowing they’re Bee-made as well as Dee-made. I’ll be a forever customer!

Exceeded expectations
We often light candles in our home and I’ve been on the lookout for a quality product for some time. Dee’s Bees met all the criteria and I’m thrilled with my purchase.

Lovely product
I really love these candles they burn nice and slowly and seem to give an even flame no matter the level of wax. I was however disappointed to paypostage and then wait 7 days after dispatch for them to arrive only to find that they come from just two streets away from my house. Perhaps a local drop of or pick up could be useful?
