Salted Caramel Sorcery

The autumn equinox is here, and Caitlyn Le Fey is excited by the upcoming masquerade ball to celebrate the festival of Mabon. Not only is it a chance to dress up in glamorous costumes, but-with the Widow Mags catering-the villagers might finally put their prejudices aside and appreciate the delicious treats from her grandmother's chocolate shop. What's more, with the dreamy music and romantic dancing, Caitlyn might even get her first kiss with the dashing Lord James Fitzroy!

But on the night of the ball, Caitlyn barely has time to sample the decadent caramel fountain, or help her old vampire uncle search for his missing fangs, before a guest is brutally murdered. Was he killed by witchcraft? Who was the mysterious woman seen following him? And why did he lie about his identity?

Many at the ball might have wanted him dead, from a jealous ex-lover to an old foe seeking revenge, but to Caitlyn's horror, it's her cousin Pomona who becomes the top suspect. Although Pomona has been acting strangely and showing a disturbing interest in black magic, ever since she was given a cursed diamond, Caitlyn refuses to believe that her pretty, bubbly cousin could be capable of murder!

With the help of her quirky witch family, a few chocolate spells, and a pony with a sweet tooth, Caitlyn is soon close to finding the real killer. But solving the mystery could also mean facing a shocking truth about her own family and the secrets of her past...

Cozy Pairings

Each pairing is chosen to create a cozy moment where scent, story, and craft come together.
Sleepy Hollow

Sleepy Hollow is a warm and comforting fragrance that blends sweet pumpkin with rich molasses and soft brown sugar, gently spiced with cinnamon. Smooth and inviting, this scent captures the depth of baked pumpkin balanced with a subtle sweetness that lingers in the air. The result is a fragrance that feels both cozy and nostalgic, with a warmth that brings a sense of ease to any space.

Why we chose this: In the tiny English village of Tillyhenge, Caitlyn Le Fey is discovering that being a witch means solving murders through seasons of harvest festivals, masquerade balls, Midsummer bonfires, and autumn equinox celebrations, all while her grandmother's enchanted chocolate shop sits at the heart of everything. Sleepy Hollow is the candle for every book in this series, warm pumpkin and rich molasses and soft cinnamon, the scent of an English village at its most golden and a little bit gothic, sweet and spiced and alive with the feeling that something magical is always just around the corner. Light this candle and let the warmth fill the room like an afternoon in a chocolate shop where the recipes are ancient and the proprietor knows a great deal more than she is telling.
