A custom logo candle from Custom Candles L.A. starts at a 50-unit minimum, ships in 10 to 15 business days after a free digital proof, and runs $32 to $36 a unit depending on which line you choose. That is the number most people looking into corporate candle gifting actually want first, before the finish, the fragrance, or anything else. Here is what the minimum, the pricing, and the turnaround actually look like across our two candle lines, so you can budget a program before you request a quote.
Key Takeaways
- Every custom logo candle line shares one minimum: 50 units per order, with a free digital proof before production starts.
- Turnaround is 10 to 15 business days after proof approval, the same window across the Signature and Luxury lines.
- The 12 oz Signature candle runs $32 per unit; the 14 oz Luxury runs $34 printed or $36 engraved.
- Engraving and direct printing are both applied to the glass itself, not a label, so neither peels or fades.
- Every candle is hand-poured in Los Angeles with a soy-blend wax and a crackling wooden wick, rated for 60 to 80 hours of burn time.
What is the minimum order for a custom logo candle?
50 units per design, across both the Signature and Luxury lines. That minimum covers one vessel color and one logo treatment; if you want to run two colors or split a design across engraved and printed finishes, plan for 50 units per version rather than 50 units total. A free digital proof comes before production either way, so you see your logo on the actual vessel before anything is poured.
Signature or Luxury: which line fits your program?
| Candle | Price | Decoration |
|---|---|---|
| 12 oz Signature | $32.00 | Direct-to-glass print, 5+ vessel colors |
| 14 oz Luxury, Printed | $34.00 | High-definition direct print, larger format |
| 14 oz Luxury, Engraved | $36.00 | Permanent laser engraving, glows as it burns |
The Signature line is the accessible entry point for a volume program: onboarding kits, event favors, a gift sent to a long client list. The Luxury line, in either finish, is built for fewer, higher-stakes moments, a closing gift or an executive gift where the weight of the object matters as much as the count.

What does direct-to-glass decoration actually mean for a gift?
Both finishes put your logo into the glass itself rather than on a label wrapped around it. Printing lays a high-definition mark directly onto the vessel; engraving cuts the logo into the glass with a laser, so it reads as a subtle etched mark by day and glows from the inside once the candle is lit. Either way, there is no sticker to peel, curl, or fade in a bag or on a shelf, which is the detail that separates a keepsake from a giveaway. The choice between the two comes down to the impression you want: printing carries a bolder, more graphic mark, while engraving reads as quieter and more permanent, the kind of detail someone notices on the second or third look rather than the first.
What does the free digital proof actually cover?
Before anything goes into production, you receive a digital proof showing your logo placed on the exact vessel and finish you selected, colors, scale, and position included. Nothing is poured until that proof is approved, so the 50-unit minimum is never a blind commitment. If a placement or size needs adjusting, that happens at the proof stage, not after a run of candles has already been made. This is the same proof-and-produce process across the Signature and Luxury lines, so switching between them mid-conversation with our team does not reset the timeline.
How long does a custom candle order take?
10 to 15 business days after you approve your free digital proof, the same window across every finish. Every candle is hand-poured in our Los Angeles facility rather than routed through a third-party fulfillment center, which is what keeps that window steady from one order to the next. If a program runs on a recurring schedule, quarterly onboarding kits or an annual holiday gift, that same turnaround applies to every reorder, since the proof from a prior run can typically be reused rather than rebuilt from scratch.
What is the candle actually made of?
Every line uses a soy-blend wax and a crackling wooden wick, rated for 60 to 80 hours of burn time, and every candle is made to comply with California's Proposition 65 labeling requirements. For more on what that compliance actually covers, California's OEHHA overview of Prop 65 is the authoritative source. Fragrance is chosen separately from the vessel and finish; a $5 fragrance sample kit is the fastest way to test scents before committing a full order.
A candle someone keeps on their desk for months is doing more relationship work than almost anything else you could send them.
Who orders custom logo candles from us?
Signature orders tend to come from marketing directors running a volume gifting program: onboarding kits, event favors, a client list that needs the same gift fifty or a few hundred times over, where cost per unit and a fast, predictable turnaround matter more than any single candle standing out. Luxury orders come from hospitality brands furnishing suites and welcome amenities, real estate teams closing a sale, and executive gifting programs sending a smaller run where the object itself is meant to carry weight and get displayed rather than used once and forgotten. A brand running both kinds of programs, a large onboarding gift and a smaller executive one, can order both lines from the same proof-and-produce process rather than managing two vendors. Compare this against our guide to corporate gift candles that actually get used for how to choose between the two for a specific gifting moment.
