Candlebuddy Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Backwoods' sale begins today. Their new bakery scents sound wonderful ...Pistachio Dream Cake (sounds yummy)Baked Apple (always looking for another apple)Coconut Curry Custard (very interesting)So far I've tested their Lilac and Hazelnut Coffee ... both are awesome throwers in my 50/50 soy blend, at 8%, with a 4-5 day cure. I have a ton more to test ... I love this supplier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissyK Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Yes, what to get, what to get?I love their New England Mist, Cashmere & Pearls, Honey Gingerbread, White Willow & Tea, and Breeze in the Keys. The Pistachio Dream Cake sounds wonderful! I love apple scents too. The coconut curry definitely sounds interesting. I'm gonna have to make up my mind and place my order tomorrow. I already have the Pumpkin Cornbread, Patchouli (best around) and Lemon Tart. They are great! Decisions, Decisions........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmhoneybear Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 You just need to try one of each. That's what I did! Got bigger bottles of some though for soaping and candlemaking- Pear Vanilla, Honey Gingerbread, Backwoods Blue, Rice Flower & Shea, and Lilac. Oh, I meant I already have all of those. Now I'll need to get all of the new ones!!! Connie, you're trying to become my only supplier, aren't you??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kymber Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 The Red Currant & Thyme Tea is really nice too. I am going to try the Honeyed Gingerbread, and a few others. I really like the Amazingly Graceful too, but since I have never smelled the original Amazing Grace I dont know how it compares. We love the Pumpkin Cornbread too!

I have the next orders awaiting the end of this sale & I think we have some doozies in the works again.Awaiting the arrival of my little pumpkin. He is coming to visit Grandma today.
