An interactive candle making service popular with children, Crazy Candles, has two new franchisees in the pipeline. Konni and Helmut Pallmert started the company in 2001 and began franchising last year.  

“We are planning on becoming a big part nationwide of the children’s entertainment industry. Our concept is for the children to dip candle wicks into eight different colours of wax and then watch their candles being carved into beautiful shapes, like dolphins and flowers,” said Konni Pallmert. “Children’s entertainment is growing steadily and schools and vacation care centres are on the rise and they absolutely love this activity as it is unique.”

The mobile franchise system allows for part time weekend work with a guaranteed income for the first two months.  

Crazy Candles has been featured in Totally Wild on Channel 10.
