**About Bolero Candles**

Bolero Candles is a proud Hispanic-owned business based in Dallas, Texas, founded by Joe Mendoza. Our candles are more than just products—they are a tribute to the vibrant sights, sounds, and flavors of our culture. Each scent is a celebration of the rich heritage that defines us, while our bold colors and carefully curated fragrances bring the essence of our community into every home.

Although the company was founded by Joe Mendoza, it has always been a family affair. My parents, Fermin and Nasaria Mendoza, played an integral role in supporting and growing Bolero Candles. Sadly, in 2023, my father, Fermin, passed away in an accident while we were on our way to Mexico. His memory and legacy continue to guide our work, and as the company grows, so does my dream of giving back to our community.

Our candle names and scents are inspired by the flavors, traditions, and experiences that shape our culture. We’ve infused our products with vibrant colors, with subtle brown tones reflecting the warmth and depth of our roots. As part of our commitment to cultural celebration and social responsibility, we’ve incorporated crystals into select candles, known for their healing properties. Additionally, we’re proud to offer a special line of candles featuring containers handmade by skilled Mexican artisans—helping to create jobs and preserve artisanal traditions.

At Bolero Candles, we don’t just create candles—we craft stories, memories, and connections. Every product is designed to bring light, warmth, and a sense of home to your life, while supporting our culture and community every step of the way. Thank you for joining us on this meaningful journey.
