About

Light of the Heartland

Light of the Heartland is a Cedar Rapids, IA based family owned business that has very humble beginnings. I was introduced to the wonderful world of soy candle making by Joe Assoey. Joe arranged for my wife Nancy and I to attend a candle making class taught by the Michael Richards the person who is considered the modern day the Father of Soy Wax. The class taught us the Benefits of Soy. We found out that soy wax and soy base products could be used to produce a variety of products, candles, soaps, lotions, and lip balms. We really enjoyed this class and learned a lot.

Once the candle making bug bit us, needless to say all of our family, started to received soy candles as gifts. They all fell in love with their soy candles. Our families received compliments from friend and acquaintances about how good the soy candles made the area they were burning in smell. They wanted to know if they could have us make soy candles for them.

Being a retired salesman of thirty five years, Nancy and I researched the soy candle business and saw the possibilities of a starting our own Home Based Soy Candle company. Light of the Heartland was born and I became a Village Chandler.

Light of the Heartland was founded with the following goals and principles in mine. Provide our customers the highest quality product and the best customer services in the industry. To insure that our quality is consistent we hand pour all of our soy candles in small batches. We also provide Soy Candle Burning Tips to ensure you experience all the benefits of a highly scented, slow burning, virtually soot free, and environmentally friendly soy candle.

Our Soy wax is 100% natural, all vegetable Soy wax made from soybeans grown in the U.S. Additionally, Soy wax is a renewable resource that helps the U.S. farm economy. We use only cotton and paper cored wicks that are lead and zinc free. Our fragrances are of the highest quality. These three components combined insure your experience using Light of the Heartland Soy Candles as an enjoyable and satisfying one. We believe you will be glad you choose our Light of the Heartland Soy Candles.

Light of the Heartland, will be expanding its product line to include soy and natural soap products.
As with our candles. we will use the fines components in combination,made in small batches to insure your experience using Light of the Heartland Soap products is an enjoyable and satisfying one. We believe you will be glad you choose our Light of the Heartland Soap Products.

We hope you will allow us to become your village chandler. We appreciate the opportunity to serve you and look forward to doing business with you in the very near future.
