Candles offer a whiff of White Castle’s burgers
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Fans of White Castle’s oniony hamburgers have a new way to indulge without any calorie guilt: a scented candle infused with the burgers’ aroma.
The Columbus, Ohio-based fast-food chain this week introduced candles that smell like its Slider burgers in a promotion with Autism Speaks. Proceeds from the sale of the $10 candles will benefit the New York-based charity.
The candles resemble a packaged White Castle burger and are being sold at the company’s restaurants and on its website. The wax is encased in a ceramic holder that looks like a Slider’s cardboard sleeve.
