Cultural + Colorful + Cool

Fresa is a small, woman-owned business that celebrates:

Culture + community + embracing your heritage
Empowering people to be unapologetically themselves
Thoughtful storytelling through design + imagery

After making candles for over ten years, I built Fresa as a platform to connect to my own cultural stories and identity, creating a space to share my underrepresented story and celebrate the powerful universal connection of scent and design.

  • Handmade + High Quality

    Domestically grown coconut soy wax and high quality fragrance oils are blended together, meticulously tested, and hand poured in small batches

  • Freshly Fragranced

    Each candle is its own scent story, inspired by garden fresh produce from our Midwest + Mexican roots to bring the comforting smells of gardening and childhood summers into your home

  • Intentionally Designed

    Our colorful branding + visual identity, inspired by Mexican snack food packaging, was designed to bring every buyer the nostalgic joy for the snacks I grew up with

The scents we're known for:
