The originator of this nifty wick is Dayna Decker. Check out the website and the prices. A 6 oz. candle is $58 US. Yikessss. Marketing to the Rich and Famous I would say. http://daynadecker.nespra.com/ Seems like she has Lumetique making them and a bunch of investors baking her. (see attached) Guess she did have a candle biz. Success Story Lumetique Inc. Studio City, Calif., entrepreneur, and former fashion model DayNa Decker, started out, as most neophytes in capital-raising do, by enlisting investors mainly among people she knew. To lay the foundations for her candle-making company Lumetique Inc., she sold a 6% stake to 10 investors, mostly friends and family, beginning in 2001. Three years later, however, with her business plan still being finalized and in dire need of capital and professional help, Ms. Decker enlisted the services of TVA. Within 6 weeks, Lumetique had improved its businesses value proposition to the point that they were able to sell a 4% stake to an angel-capital firm, Angel Strategies LLC, Tustin, CA. There's a fine line between helping and meddling, says Ms. Decker, but so far her angel is helping. Angel Strategies has helped her connect with other potential investors around the country, she says, and TVA has been right there at her side. She and a colleague meet regularly with TVA’s co-founder and Chairman, John Garcia, to hash out basic details about setting up a board of directors, seeking new capital and securing a public-relations firm. TVA has also offered input about which retailers can help sell the candles (preferably high-end department stores), who might buy the company further down the road (probably a strategic partner, like one of Lumetique's manufacturers in Asia or Europe), and how Lumetique should handle its patents. The company is hoping to sell its first wood-trimmed, clean-burning candles for this holiday season, and Ms. Decker is forecasting revenue of $1.5 million next year.
