About Us

WE ELEVATE SPACES WITH FRAGRANCE

In the heart of Cleveland, Ohio, Nimbus & Wick Candle Co. was born from a simple yet profound idea: to create a sensory escape in every flame. The journey began with a passion for crafting candles that not only illuminate spaces but also evoke memories, emotions, and dreams. Each candle is meticulously hand-poured using the finest, sustainably sourced ingredients, ensuring an eco-friendly burn that respects the planet.

At Nimbus & Wick, we believe in the transformative power of scent. Our unique blends are inspired by nature, travels, and the comforting nostalgia of home. From the crisp, refreshing notes of a morning in Côte d'Azur to the warm, soothing aromas of a cozy Cleveland evening, our candles are designed to transport you to your happy place.

Our commitment to quality and sustainability is unwavering. We use natural soy blend wax, premium fragrance oils, and lead-free cotton wicks to create candles that burn cleaner and longer. Every candle is a testament to our dedication to craftsmanship and our love for the community that supports us.

The Founder

In a spare room on the northeast side of Cleveland, Susan Cloud sat surrounded by bottles of fragrance oils, wicks, and containers of wax. A lifelong Ohio native, Susan had always been enchanted by the city's rich history and vibrant community. After years of working, she decided to pursue one of her passions: creating beautiful, fragrant candles that could bring a touch of serenity to people's lives.

Each Nimbus & Wick candle is a tribute to a place or memory dear to Susan’s heart – from the fresh, invigorating scent of the air after a summer rainstorm to the comforting aroma of a former Shaker Heights staple, Arabica café on a snowy winter day.

As Nimbus & Wick Candle Co. grows, Susan remains committed to giving back to the community. Susan’s dream is to build not just a successful business, but a brand that makes a positive impact on the world.

Today, Nimbus & Wick Candle Co. is hoping to be a fixture in Cleveland and beyond, known for its exquisite scents, ethical practices, and heartfelt passion. Susan’s journey is a testament to the power of following one's passion and the magic that can happen when you find your true calling. Every Nimbus & Wick candle carries a piece of Susan’s dream and her unwavering dedication to creating moments of peace and joy for everyone who lights one.
