Our Story
Cocovela is a homegrown business that came to life in 2020, right on my kitchen counter. My name is Jayleen and I am the founder and owner of Cocovela, which I run with the help of my amazing son Chase.
I developed my business during a time when the entire world was experiencing immense change. The pandemic allowed me the opportunity to slow down and reevaluate what I wanted out of life.
My obsession with candles emerged from a young age. My mom would deep clean our home and every room had a candle burning. I was always amazed at how a single candle can completely transform and enhance your entire mood and the ambiance of any space.
The candle making process has brought me so much clarity, relaxation and pure joy; and that is exactly what we would like to bring into your home.
