Scarborough's hidden gem
Organic coffee · Handcrafted soy candles · Community at heart
Our Story
Tucked along Old Kingston Road in Scarborough, Candles & Palms was born from Sandy's belief that a cafe should feel like a second home — a place to slow down, connect, and leave a little lighter than you arrived.
We brew certified organic coffee and serve fresh pastries alongside a curated collection of hand-poured soy candles made with love right here in the shop. Every scent, every roast, every conversation is intentional.
What We Offer
From rich espresso to smooth pour-overs, every cup is sourced and brewed with intention. No compromise on quality or origin.
Hand-poured in small batches using 100% natural soy wax and fragrance oils. Each candle fills your space with warmth and clarity.
Fresh-baked treats including our fan-favourite spinach & feta pastry — perfect alongside your morning cup.
Learn the art of candle-making in a hands-on class led by Sandy. A perfect gift or solo adventure — no experience needed.
