We’d recommend this one on the rocks to make it a bit more palatable. Best taken in one quick swig. K?
When a patient walks into the emergency department with a severely elevated potassium level, it's called "hyperkalemia." They will receive a combination of medications to help normalize their potassium, and one of those medications may be a butterscotch smelling thick liquid. Despite the alluring smell, it isn't always the most popular among patients. The way that *I* would make it more palatable for patients was to pour it over ice, like a cocktail. This candle is inspired by this liquid medication on the rocks. I'm sure this product would be much preferable to taking the medication, though.
Notes of butterscotch, bourbon, and vanilla.
This candle is an especially great gift for nurses and other healthcare professionals who work in: emergency, critical care, cardiac care, telemetry, med surg

Product Info
Product Info
Candles in the PRN collections are made with 7oz (198g) of a paraffin blended wax. Lots of misconceptions exist surrounding the usage of paraffin wax so for more information please read through the info page which can be found here! A wooden wick is used for the optimal burn, and you may notice that some candles have a smaller or larger wooden wick than others; this is to ensure the safest burn possible. SO much testing goes into every candle.
Total burn time is approximately 40 hours, but never let your candle burn longer than 3-4 hours at a time!
This product is packaged in an amber, glass jar finished with a plastic, black lid. A warning label can be found on the bottom of the candle.
Basic Candle Care
Basic Candle Care
- On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the jar’s edge to prevent tunneling.
- Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch before every burn for a longer-lasting, cleaner candle.
- Burn for 3–4 hours at a time for the best scent throw and minimal soot.
- Place candles on a flat, heat-safe surface away from drafts or heat sources.

Disclaimer
Each candle is handmade in small batches, which means you may notice small quirks like slightly off-centered wicks, minor jar markings, or uneven labels. None of these affect burn quality or fragrance.
Scent is deeply personal, and while I pour love into every blend, I know not every fragrance will be everyone’s favorite. If you’re unsure about a scent, I’m always happy to answer questions before you buy.
