Treats Wax Melts is owned and operated by Gennifer Baker. The company
specializes in making wax melts for tart burners. They do offer a variety of
scents and offer a unique surprise. Each order has an equal opportunity to win
a mystery melt at no additional charge. These mystery melts can contain
jewelry, money, or free wax. Each order
is hand poured to perfection with great pride. Baker has spent countless amounts
of time and money testing to perfection. Baker would not sell a customer
anything she herself wouldn’t purchase as a consumer. If the vendor pours wax
that isn’t up to her high standards, it would not be shipped to a customer. The
vendor keeps in close contact with each and every customer to ensure
satisfaction. She values opinions and feedback so that she is able to improve
and perfect her products.
The creation of Sweet Treats Wax Melts
was inspired by Baker’s mother. She made her mother a huge basket of wax for
Mother’s Day, and it became popular with her mother’s friends. Starting the
business was actually Baker’s daughter’s idea. Her daughter loves sweets, and
from that idea Sweet Treats Wax Melts was born.
The vendor took her daughter’s love
of candy, and used it as inspiration.
The vendor’s wax is inspired by candy’s bright colors, different
textures, and amazing variety. The
vendor is also inspired by people. She feels that we can learn a lot from one
another. The vendor said, “Money may come and go, but people make the world go
round.”
This vendor has only recently been
open to the public. Online sales only began on July 4, 2014. The vendor does
sell soap and wax locally. The vendor hopes to bring soap sales online by Fall
2014.
This vendor sets herself apart from
others by ensuring quality. The vendor does not care how much money she spends
or makes, it is about providing a quality product. She is more concerned with putting
a smile on others faces using her creativity with wax, than about making a quick
buck.

Wax Look: The
wax survived the heat. I have to say…I love the colors she uses! Her wax is
bright and colorful. The sparkles are appropriately coordinated with the color
of the wax. Overall, I am very pleased with the appearance of this wax. Oh…and
the muffin..is probably one of the cutest muffins I have ever seen!

Seriously...how cute is this muffin!!! It is very pretty too!
-
A very
sweet cherry scent. Not sure if I like it….
-
N/A
- Monkey Business (Scent
Shot)
-
Smells
like a strong tropical fruit combination. Pineapple is probably the fruit that
stands out the most to me.
-
A lightly
scented wax that smells very much like a pina colada (a light pineapple coconut
mixture).
- Fresh Peach (4 Pack of
Square Tarts)
-
A light
realistic peach smell.
- Key Lime Pie (Mini Muffin)
-
A don’t
just have the typical key lime smell in this tart. From cold sniff alone, it
seems to be truly realistic key lime scent. There is a wonderful creamy note
within this tart. It beautifully adds a delicate balance to the key lime scent.
Wax Melting Review:
- Detailed Description of Each Smell
-
A sweet cherry scent. Somewhat of a
medicinal cherry smell.
-
N/A
- Monkey Business (Scent
Shot)
-
A very
pleasant fruity smell. I generally don’t like tropical scents, but this is very
nice. It isn’t too overwhelming and not overly bitter like many tropical
fruits. Pineapple is probably the scent I notice the most, but other fruits are
noticeable (Just can’t peg which ones).
-
Smells as
if I had a pina colada sitting in front of me.
- Fresh Peach ( 4 Pack of
Square Tarts)
-
A very
light peach scent.
- Key Lime Pie (Mini Muffin)
-
Very true
key lime pie scent. It smells as if I have the pie right in front of me. The
creaminess of the scent is just right. I have to say that this scent is very
true to its name!

scents I have tried, I never got wax nose while this was melting (Sometimes
scents seem to disappear if you are around them for an extended period of
time).

Sum Up:
·
Overall
Impression
o Brand new vendor who is dead set
on making every customer happy no matter what the cost. Considering customer
service can make or break a company, striving to make every customer happy will
most likely result in a successful future for this company.
- Pros
- Consistent strength of
scent.
- Vendor loves feedback.
- Very realistic scents.
- She offers scents that
could technically be aggravating to sense (give headaches) if done
incorrectly, but she manages to do these scents in a pleasant way. (Many
of these scents I would normally avoid due to the tendency for them to
cause migraines, but so far I have remained headache free melting this
vendor’s wax).
- Cons
- Fairly safe scents
available. Nothing out of the ordinary as far as scent choices.
- Overall Liked Scents
- Key Lime Pie
- Monkey Business
- Pina Colada
-
Normally
I don’t like scents with this low of a scent throw, but I truly like this
scent.
-
Smells like a sweet version of cough
syrup.
- If it ends up in a destash/RAOK, why?
-
I dislike
mango scents. I find them on the harsher side of citrus fruits and tend to be
less sweet than I prefer my fruity scents to be.
-
Just not
strong enough for me.
- How the wax could be improved?/Was it missing
something?
- I do feel like this wax
could be improved, but not sure exactly on what aspect.
- Was it worth the money?
- N/A I won the items through
a Facebook game!
- Would I purchase from this vendor again?
- Yes, I am very curious to see what else this vendor
has to offer. As a new vendor who uses feedback to improve, this vendor’s
quality of wax will only become better with every purchase. I also
wouldn’t have necessarily chosen these scents for myself, because
normally they would aggravate my sense. I would love to see her take on
some of my favorite scents.
