The purchase of a candle is a traditional custom in our country, since it is customary for the godfathers to offer it at their baptisteries shortly before Easter. Naturally, the theme of their decoration is inspired by each season and of course by current events.
From rapid test to… beers and dolls
Thus, a store in Thessaloniki, exceeds the limits of imagination and creates a candle… Rapid Test, gyros, skewers, dolls, video games, and even TV series in the form of a candle. This year – as you will see from the photos and videos of GRTimes.gr – the Rapid Test, the coronavirus (for another year), the candles with the characters of the homonymous Squid Games series, the heroes of the game Among Us. But also candles… beers, spirits, the Tik Tok logo, dolls, musical instruments and everything the human mind can imagine.
“Wholesale has already started, with stores sending us new orders every day. Until now, the work was “cut”. Usually from January to March is the “dead” period and we start selling dynamically from March. The work goes up 1.5 months before Easter, however this year, as soon as Christmas was over, the first orders started directly, first from abroad and then domestic ones “, says Alexis Gerakis, owner of a candle shop in the center, to GRTimes.gr of Thessaloniki.
The Cypriots, who either place orders by phone or visit the store, show great interest in the “special” pieces created in Thessaloniki. The peculiarity of these candles, according to the owner of the store, have “forced” them to create “from scratch” more than 900 candle codes.
