About Us

Welcome! Our names are Roger and Bonnie Haack and we live in rural Lennox, SD and carefully craft our candles and products at home.  It was important to us that people have a candle choice that is made in South Dakota, and for everyone to have a quality candle option to purchase from! Our candles are made from a Paraffin/Soy wax. Paraffin is a product of the oil industry, so it is easily available at this time, and it holds color and scent very well. 

At one time, Bonnie was a Team Leader for a company who sold candles and merchandise at home parties.  Once pregnant with our second child she no longer had time to spend on that venture.  She also had a retail job several years ago and fell in love with selling the candles there. 

Now that both of the Haack kids are older, Bonnie was looking for a way to incorporate candles into a new business.  Several years later, a close friend started a business built around pet food/ merchandise and Bonnie saw the odor eliminating candles sold there.  After talking about it, we felt that this would be fascinating science to research, and a great way to breathe fresh air into pet owner’s homes.

We are contining to update and add more products to our line and hope you will follow along with our journey! We affectionately call our original first line of candles “P U Be Gone”.  All of our odor eliminating products work by having an enzyme in the candle that traps odor particles in the air and removes them instead of masking them like most other candles do.

We know the odor eliminating enzymes work because we have a dog and cat whose odors would flood our home without them.  Roger has spent much time researching and perfecting the product to ensure that you will be impressed and extremely satisfied with our brand of wax merchandise.

Thank you for checking out our website and choosing Aroma Dakota!
