Cost Plus World Market is recalling approximately 8,400 bleeding drip taper candles because the flame can reach a height that ignites the surface of the wax. This creates a fire hazard, and the firm has already received two incident reports, including one instance of a candle catching on fire. These 10-inch unscented black candles, which bleed red wax as they melt, were sold in packs of two between August 2017 and October 2017. Consumers should immediately stop using these candles and return them to any World Market location for a full refund.
The candles can produce an excessively high flame that sets the entire top surface of the wax on fire, rather than just the wick, posing a significant fire risk to the surrounding area.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled candles and return them to any Cost Plus World Market or World Market store for a full refund.
