Burning bayberry candles is a tradition
dating back to colonial times. Early colonists came upon the bayberry shrub
growing in the sand belt of the Atlantic coast, as well as the shores of
Lake Erie. The berry-type fruit is crusted with a greenish-white wax,
settlers found that boiling the fruit created a wax residue on the surface
of the water. The wax had a fragrant aroma and burned magnificently. Many
berries had to be boiled to get enough wax to make a candle, these candles
burned longer, cleaner, and brighter than did the traditional candles of the
time. Therefore, bayberry candles were saved and burned on special occasions
only! One such special occasion was the celebration of the New Year. |
