Ice cream candle workshop in Faro at Arte e Cacos do Algarve on 24th May at 11h, a fun, colourful and deliciously creative two-hour session where you make your own beautifully scented decorative candles inspired by irresistible ice creams. Led by Cecilia and the Arte e Cacos team, this hands-on experience invites you to explore colours, textures, aromas and decorative elements to create candles that look almost good enough to eat. All materials included, no prior experience needed and the whole point is to enjoy the process as much as the result.

The session gives you two relaxed and creative hours to build your own ice cream inspired candles, experimenting with different colour combinations, layering techniques, scents and decorative finishes that give each piece its own personality. Whether you want to make something to display at home, give as a genuinely original gift or simply spend a fun and creative morning in good company, the Olha o Gelado workshop delivers exactly that in the warm and characterful studio atmosphere that Arte e Cacos is known for.

I am Cecilia, the creative soul behind Arte e Cacos do Algarve. Through handmade mosaics, ceramics and unique artistic pieces I transform broken fragments into meaningful art filled with character and emotion. Living in the Algarve has deeply influenced my work, from the ocean blues and terracotta tones to the relaxed rhythm of coastal life. Arte e Cacos is more than a studio. It is a space where art, passion and craftsmanship come together to celebrate individuality and handmade design.
