Paula Deen Pumpkin Roll Cake Scented Candle

Forethoughts: If there’s anyone who knows how to encapsulate the tranquil, harmonious smells of the autumn harvest into candle form, it’s gotta be Paula Deen, everyone’s favorite Food Network Grandma, right?  Otherwise why was I willing to pay half again the price for this stinkin’ candle?!
Actual Smell: Much sweeter than the previous candle, probably because Paula Deen’s version actually had cake in the title.  It’s definitely a much different aroma, along the lines of what one would expect when baking cookies – maybe a pie – but ultimately, still good times with regards to this aroma!
Bonus!: I think nearly as enticing as the advertised scent itself was the fact that this candle also came along with a recipe from one Paula Deen for the very cake that this candle was designed to mimic.  It might take a few weeks for me to get around to making this one because a few of the ingredients aren’t exactly readily available in our kitchen at home (i.e. dark rum, whipping cream for the filling), but this might prove to be a good dessert to whip up sometime around Thanksgiving in between Christmas specials – I’ll keep ya posted…
