How We Make Vanilla Candy Cane

We’ve been making our signature holiday scent — Vanilla Candy Cane — for years now. You love it, we love it, it’s not just back every year by popular demand, it’s become a holiday tradition.

“Each holiday season we eagerly await the return of Vanilla Candy Cane. Simple ingredients make the best gifts.” – Karina Birch, Co-Owner and CEO

What’s behind the scent?

Like the best things in life it’s so, so simple. We mix real Vanilla with refreshing Peppermint Oil. Inspired by cozy baking, candy canes, that feeling of coming in from the cold and warming your rosy cheeks by the fire, Vanilla Candy Cane is all things comforting about home for the holidays.

We wanted to give you a peek at how hard our amazing Rocky elves have been working to makes this holiday scent, down at the workshop:

Which products carry this scent?

All of your favourites! The Rocky formulas you love all year round are imbued with that Vanilla Peppermint goodness for you and yours.

Hand Sanitizer
Brand new this year and inspired by our Vanilla Candy Cane scent, Winter Cheer Hand Sanitizer is everything you love about our Nomad Hand Sanitizer formula, but with a happy holiday scent to lift your spirits.

Daily Oat Lotion
This powerhouse of moisture keeps you hydrated all day long thanks to soothing Oat Kernel Oil and Safflower Oleosomes, which have a time released effect and deliver their nutrients into your skin over the course of the day, instead of all at once.

Everything Wash
This pure Castile soap is made from a nourishing base of organic Coconut, Olive and Jojoba oils to keep your skin happy. Use it on your hands, body — your everything! In the shower or sinkside.

Bar Soap
A classic form of soap in a classic holiday scent! Bar Soap at Rocky is made with a rich Shea Butter base that lathers amazingly, dispersing that scent of winter cheer while you wash your hands or body.

Body Butter
For the person who needs that extra kick of hydration. Body Butters are a rich moisturiser with good-for-you oils like Sesame and Sunflower, kicked up a notch with Cocoa Seed Butter and healing local Beeswax.

Sugar Scrub
The ultimate indulgence. Sugar Scrubs let you scrub away the day with Cane Sugar and oils your skin loves, like Coconut, Jojoba and Sunflower.

Lip Butter
No one likes a chap lipped! For a holiday fresh pout, our Lip Butter formula — made with local Beeswax, Cocoa Seed Butter and Shea Butter — is enhanced by that Vanilla Candy Cane goodness to keep you joyful all day long.

Bath Bomb
What makes our Bath Bombs so moisturising? These little fizzers disperse rich Cocoa Seed Butter and other goodness into your bath, while the scent of happiness (okay, Vanilla Candy Cane) fills your bathroom.
