Candle shop sells Texas-inspired scents in Cibolo
“I just started experimenting because there was so much inspiration from Texas, so the rst candle I ever made was a Bluebonnet fragrance candle and that was very successful,” Knapp said. The shop also o ers goat’s milk soap, wax melts, beard oil and other items. What’s special about it? Yellow Rose Candle Co. o ers themed can- dle-making workshops where guests can create a custom candle—something the Schertz and Cibolo area previously did not have, Knapp said. Knapp said the experience is open to all ages and encourages her guests to “unleash their creativity.”
For Kristina Knapp, crafting candles was a calming break from her corporate job. Little did she know her hobby would one day become a full-time business. Knapp launched Yellow Rose Candle Co. in January 2022, where she began selling candles, soaps and air fresheners at local farmers markets. In April 2024, she opened her rst storefront in downtown Cibolo at 203 Rawe Ave. What they o er Yellow Rose Candle Co. specializes in Tex- as-themed, woodwick candles with scents inspired by the elements of Texas, such as Texas Yellow Rose, Fields of Bluebonnets, Texas Coastline and Fredericksburg Peach.
