Cafe' of Rose Nichaud

Inspired by determination and entrepreneurial fortitude, this candle was created to spotlight and honor, Rose Nicaud. It has aromas of coffee au lait-strong, bold, and beautiful fused together.

Rose Nicaud, born enslaved, understood the importance of strength and perseverance. Rose was one of the first women and woman of color vendors in the city of New Orleans who sold French coffee, commonly known as café au lait, to patrons along the river near the St. Louis Cathedral. She overcame obstacles all while possessing an air of grace and excellence when exhibiting her strength.

After several years of success, Rose was able to purchase her freedom as well as the freedom of her husband and subsequently a storefront in the world-renowned French Market. 

She is a quintessential example of how resourcefulness combined with an innate strength to overcome any obstacle is a perfect recipe to long lasting success. 

There are no obstacles we can't overcome- Thank you, Rose Nicaud for showing me that truth.
