Recall alert: 653K Trader Joe’s mango tangerine candles recalled

Trader Joe’s has recalled about 653,000 candles that could pose a burn hazard.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said the flame in the mango tangerine scented candles can spread from the wick to the wax and cause a flame that is bigger than expected.

The candles have SKU 56879 printed on the bottom of the tin container. The candle itself is white wax with a cotton wick. They were sold in June.

If you have the recalled candle you should stop using it and return it to any Trader Joe’s for a $4 cash refund. You can also submit a form online to get the refund on a gift card when you provide a receipt or photo of the candle.

There have been 14 reported incidents of high flames with three reports of minor property damage and two reports of minor burns.
