Shoppers fell in love with the candles when they were featured in a viral TikTok video. In a post shared by @Ruthyoungx, the lifestyle blogger highlighted her favourite finds from a recent shopping trip. She said: "Swipe for some Primark Home gorgeousness. Her caption continued: "Can you even cope with the candles."


Ruth showcased a selection of scented candles, including cocktail-shaped candles and a sea shell option. There were candles shaped like strawberry daiquiri and spicy margarita cans, along with eye-catching candles shaped like cocktail glasses, with the glasses priced at £4.50 each.

While there are differences between the scented cocktail glass candles, it's fair to say they could both add a 'touch of whimsical charm to your space', as per Primark's product description. Primark suggests the candles could make a 'perfect gift for any fan of quirky decor or those looking to add a splash of style to their home.'

Viewers certainly loved the designs. Fans flocked to the comments section to praise the designs, reports the Mirror. One enthusiastic shopper wrote: "WHO IS RUNNING THEIR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT I NEED IT ALL." A second thought: "Those cocktail candles are everything."

Someone else praised: "Okay the cocktail candles have my heart." A shopper suggested: "Primark trip needed." A fan said: "Primark coming throughhhhh." Another commented: "Wow looks amazing." Someone added: "HOW DO U FIND ALL THE GOOD STUFF!!!!!"
