Set the Scene with the New Cask Candle

By Marla Milling Published October 12, 2013

Want to impress a date with a romantic candlelit evening? We’ve found a candle we love that not only sets the scene, but also fills the air with an aroma you’ll both enjoy.

The new Cask Candle offers up a floral-whiskey scent highlighted with patchouli, cedar woods and vanilla. It’s also crafted from soy wax, which means it will burn cleaner than paraffin and be easier on the planet.

This new candle is the second collaboration between Baxter of California and Ronin, a Hong Kong based restaurant established in 2013. It’s a sister restaurant to Yardbird, also in Hong Kong.

“I had the pleasure of meeting with RONIN (and Yardbird) co-owner Lindsay Jang last year when she was in Los Angeles,” says JP Mastey, creative director at Baxter. “At that time Lindsay was purchasing Baxter of California hand wash and candles for her restaurants. Our first venture was a black currant hand wash (BOC & RONIN co-branded) that we launched in the Summer of 2013, while developing a unique and custom scent for a new candle.”

$35 for the Cask Candle at Baxter of California.

Terence Crawford delivers warning to young athletes amid Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s money woes

It's been less than a year since Terence "Bud" Crawford announced his stunning retirement from boxing, which came shortly after he delivered a masterclass performance against Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in a mega bout that cemented his place in boxing lore. In the seven months since hanging up the gloves, Crawford now knows what it's like to continue sustaining a lifestyle that includes supporting seven children, on top of continuing to pay the bills, like a mortgage and the boxing gym he owns in Omaha, Nebraska, or continuing with his real estate investment opportunities while no longer being able to count on a major payday as the former No. 1 pound-for-pound boxer.

It's estimated that Crawford earned anywhere from $90 million to $100 million during his illustrious career. Those in the know say Crawford is financially disciplined, which is what makes him the perfect, and perhaps only, candidate to speak out on Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s alleged money problems.

Hollywood couldn't have written this any better if it tried. England will face Mexico in the Round of 16 on Sunday night at the iconic Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, pitting two powerhouses looking to rewrite history. But first, England had to get there, and it did so in dramatic fashion. The Brits trailed the Democratic Republic of the Congo 1-0 late in the game on Wednesday in Atlanta. As the clock ticked past the 70th minute, desperation set in for England as Congo eyed the impossible.

Enter Harry Kane.
