MALIN+GOETZ and Carbone Fine Food's New Tomato Supercandle

MALIN+GOETZ and Carbone Fine Food are collaborating once again to release a limited-edition tomato supercandle, further establishing their commitment to exquisite craftsmanship and unique experiences. This partnership, which has flourished for two consecutive years, emphasizes their mutual dedication to high-quality, authentically sourced ingredients while maintaining a simple yet refined approach in their products.

This year's candle features a captivating tomato fragrance designed to evoke the comforting essence of ripe tomatoes, directly pulling inspiration from their shared love for gardening and culinary mastery. The fragrance was crafted by utilizing sun-ripened tomato notes, alongside herbaceous and citrus elements, reminiscent of the signature high-quality tomatoes Carbone Fine Food sources from Italy.

Carbone Fine Food founder, Mario Carbone, remarks, "Tomatoes have always been central to our philosophy. When they’re perfectly ripe, they can whisk you away to cherished meals or treasured memories. This collaboration highlights our passion for quality ingredients that create unforgettable experiences."

The fragrance was initially launched in 2020 and aimed to encapsulate the entire environment of a tomato vine, including its leaves, herbs, sunlight, and the soul of freshly picked produce. Co-founders Matthew Malin and Andrew Goetz express that executing simplicity in their design and fragrances is the ultimate challenge. As Goetz stated, "While simplicity sounds effortless, it is often the most challenging to achieve well. Just like crafting a perfect tomato sauce, it requires impeccable ingredients and technique while avoiding unnecessary distractions."

The 2026 limited-edition tomato supercandle is presented in a vibrant shade of tomato red and has evolved into a double-walled glass vessel in a unique vine-green hue, accompanied by a matching lid. Its vegetable wax blend burns evenly for up to 80 hours, and it features a 3-wick format to enhance the aromatic experience. The candle comes in an attractive and gift-ready packaging that underscores the brands' identities, including Carbone's iconic restaurant graphics and MALIN+GOETZ's modern typography.

This latest tomato supercandle was released on August 17, 2026, and is part of an extended MALIN+GOETZ tomato collection launched in July 2026, which includes tomato hand soaps and hand salves. With strong roots in NYC’s diverse cultural landscape, MALIN+GOETZ was founded to offer high-quality skincare products that seamlessly fit into today’s fast-paced lifestyle, while emphasizing a philosophy of effectiveness and environmental mindfulness.

Meanwhile, Carbone Fine Food is dedicated to elevating home dining with the same expertise and quality standards found in their acclaimed restaurants. The brand ensures excellence by handpicking tomatoes and preparing small-batch sauces, sustaining their dedication to authentic Italian cuisine.

In summary, the new MALIN+GOETZ x Carbone Fine Food tomato supercandle is more than just a fragrance— it’s a sensory journey that celebrates the heart of Italian culinary tradition and the essence of simplicity in craftsmanship. This collaboration beckons enthusiasts to ignite the candle, simmer a sauce, and immerse themselves in the warm embrace of Italian flavors and memories.
