Catherine is my Mother's Name

Catherine & Co. is a Toronto-based candle company known for making candles that spark conversation. We started with a mission to anticipate the next hobby craze and have become known for our fun candle names, delightful fragrances and unique scents.

Founder Émeraude Domingos-Mbuku named this small company after her mother because they were spending a lot of time working and making candles together. Catherine was also the one who gave her the idea to name the original collection in their native language.

In the four years since we've launched, we've been featured on CP24, BlogTO, Glamour UK, and Reddit, and have worked with Adidas, Silver Hotel Groups, Ace Hotel, and Queen Street West BIA. 

Catherine & Co. hold their products to the highest standards - all candles are carefully crafted using a coconut-soy wax blend and fragrance oils sourced from local perfumers - and believes that good candles don't have to be expensive to be luxurious. Whether you want to commemorate the time you saw your favourite drag queen at Crews & Tangos or show your appreciation for someone special, our candles will make lighting a candle a cherished part of your daily ritual.
