Hand-Dipped by Hoosiers
Warm Glow Candle Company was founded in 1995 by Indiana natives Alan and Jackie Carberry, who began making candles in their basement and built the company into one of Indiana's notable small manufacturers. The company is now led by Abby and Justin Burkhardt, who purchased it in 2023, and continues to operate from Centerville in Wayne County.
All Warm Glow candles are 100% hand-dipped by employees the company calls Hoosiers — Indiana residents who have mastered the traditional dipping craft. The dipping process takes approximately ten hours per candle: molten wax is applied in successive layers by repeatedly dipping the wick into heated wax vats, with cooling time between each dip to build up the candle body. The process cannot be meaningfully automated without changing the product.
Centerville, Indiana
Centerville is a small city in eastern Indiana near the Ohio border, part of Wayne County's modest manufacturing base. Warm Glow is among the county's notable employers, and the company's commitment to its hometown is reflected in the brand's imagery and marketing — the Hoosier identity is central to how the company presents itself to buyers who care about domestic manufacturing.
The wax used in Warm Glow candles is primarily derived from domestically produced paraffin, supporting the American petroleum refining industry that produces paraffin as a byproduct. The candle molds are filled and dipped in Centerville, and the finished products are packaged and distributed from the same Indiana location.
The Hearth Candle Tradition
Warm Glow's signature product is the hearth candle — a pillar candle designed to burn slowly and evenly, filling a room with fragrance over many hours of burn time. The fragrances are chosen for appeal in home settings: warm, baked, spiced, and seasonal scents that complement the candle's role as a home fragrance product rather than a decorative object.
The hand-dipping process produces candles with slightly irregular surfaces — evidence of the handmade process rather than a manufacturing defect. Regular buyers recognize this variation as a quality indicator; it confirms the candle was made by a person following a traditional process rather than extruded by a machine. Warm Glow has built a regional following in the Midwest where buyers seek out the candles at the Centerville store and through online retail.
