SOUL LOVE CANDLE CO. Rochester Creative Spotlight!
I make 100% soy candles and melts! I love creating unique scents by mixing 2 or more fragrances for each candle or melt. I love when my candles embody a scent that can transport you to a memory or a feeling. I’ve tested extensively to create candles that will have a nice background scent and not be too overpowering. I have a classic collection with 5 scents and a rotating seasonal collection with 3-5 scents. All scents come in a 3oz. and 6oz. candle and the melts are available in all classic collection scents.

THE TATTED CHEF, Rochester Creative Spotlight!
Chef Joseph Morey is a upstate NY native that has a love for food, tattoos and sauce. More known by The Tatted Chef (@the.tatted.chef) the focus as of recent has been my own sauce line Joe's Secret Stuff. Buffalo sauce is the main flavor that is a must try. This staple in house holds across Ny has also reached Paris, Puerto Rico, North Carolina, Texas, Neveda, Florida, and Georgia. Great for literally anything dipping sauce, base for a pizza, salad dressing, and of course all chicken. The second flavor dropped which is a soy glaze, great on any grilled meat, any form of fish, all veggies, and really is the direction that Asain fusion is headed. The game changer to the Secret Stuff, kimchi is now available as well!!!
