Yankee Candles - who was the tart junkie?

[CathrynRose]

Yes - add me to the list of junkies, please.....

I went on Saturday and just couldnt decide what scent I wanted - I saw the VAST array of tarts and thought "gee, I could mix and match these together too" (as the potpourri warmer thing I have is a biggee)

Good Lord - Ive been burning all weekend long! Chocolate Chip Cookie & Buttercream was QUITE delightful, as was Granny Smith and Vanilla Caramel - mixed! WOO HOO!

Im sitting at work thinking about what Im doing tonight - Im thinking a White Zinfandel & Chardonnay will work...

And have any of you smelled "Milk & Cookies" OH YUM! It didnt come in a tart though - gotta buy the jar <sigh>

I love my tarts. As I posted in another thread I've been in a Christams decorating mood but its still to early but I ahve been burning Mistletoe.

Oh, me and my DH are addicted! Right now I have granny smith in one warmer, and holiday cookie in the other. The holiday cookie (I think that is what it is called) is very nice. One tart will make my whole place smell soooo good!

I got hooked on these things last winter!! Currently, I have pumpkin pie in the warmer. You know, I never thought of burning two different scents at the same time...I do have two warmers..........OOOHHH!!!!!!!! I see a new obsession in my future!

My sister and I just went to the Yankee Candle Factory in South Deerfield, MA last week. The place was amazing. It was huge, like Disney, only with candles!!!!! I could not get over the selection. I ended up spending a ton of money on tarts! Has anyone tried "Jack Frost", it is to die for!

I love my tart warmer. I just put in a Buttercream tart. There was a thread a long time ago, I'm pretty sure it this on this board, about different tart combinations. I did a search but I can't find it. I wish I would have written some of it down because there were lots of yummy sounding combinations.

I LOVE YC tarts. I have about 30 of them. My new favorite is Mandarin Cranberry. If you love YC, there is the Holiday Yankee Candle Exchange going on right now. Check it out.

With young kids in the house, I didn't want an open flame, but did want to try some of the yummy holiday scents so I bought one of the electric tart burners. My fave tart right now is Christmas Berries. Strawberry and blueberry was also delicious smelling.

Dh and I can't sleep unless there is a tart melting in our room. We love our electric warmer. I am going to have to try the combo of granny smith apple and vanilla caramel, that has to be heaven!!

I didn't know they had electric warmers!! Is it from YC? Does it melt the tart evenly? I'd love to know more about that!

I'm going to go warm a tart right now!

Oh no, you guys are making me want to take my tart burner out of the cabinet and go to yankee candle tomorrow to buy some tarts!!

There are electric tart burners available. I work in a gift shop that sells Yankee candles among lots of other things. Yankee has electric tart burners as do several other companies. I have both electric and regular tart burners and like both, it just depends on the mood I'm in as to whether I want the flame or not. Lately I've been burning alot of votives and tea lights instead of tarts. I also have a lot of jars and tarts, so there is almost always something burning or melting somewhere in the house.

I love Hazlenut Coffee. My DH loves tarts as well, but always thinks I'm baking things and is disappointed when he finds out I'm not.

 

[mickeyfan2]

I love the tarts too.

The Jack Frost is my ultimate winter favorite. It smells soooo good.

After reading this thread I decided it was time to try some of the tarts. So reasonable to try a fragrance to see if I really like it when it is burning.

I went to our Yankee Candle shop yesterday but I had forgotten to put my billfold in my purse after going out to dinner the night before. I found enough change and ones in the bottom of my purse to buy 4 tarts but no burner.

Today I was a Big Lots and they had a tart burner with 4 apple tarts and one tea light for $4. I bought it and it is great. I'm amazed at how much aroma I am getting even from this off brand tart.

My dad keeps the house pretty hot so I am always having to turn on a ceiling fan so sometimes it is hard to burn a regular candle. I am going to love this.

If I'd had the money yesterday I would have bought at least a dozen tarts.
