About us
Welcome to Sofia! We specialize in hand-poured soy-based candles and wax melts that go beyond scents – they are a celebration of people, places, and moments that matter most to you. Our fragrance blends are carefully crafted to evoke emotions, transport you to favorite places, and rekindle special memories. We invite you to curate your own narrative by personalizing labels with names, quotes, or memories, making each candle a cherished keepsake. All of our products are consciously curated and hand-poured in small batches in our Bengaluru studio.
Hello, I'm Avantika. :) While I am a full-time aerospace engineer, Sofia started off as a covid side project in 2020. Something to keep me occupied, something through which I could channel creativity. I learnt to make my very first candle! Since then, this brain baby has come a long way :) I have designed and sold hundreds of candles over the course of the last few years. My favorite parts about the job are coming up with intoxicating fragrance blends and packaging design. I still channel my creativity through Sofia! Thank you for taking the time and effort to shop small. Each of you has an incredible impact on Sofia and me. Love, Avantika
