Theresa (owner/instructor) was amazing and very informative. We blended our own scent which we selected from a choice of 81 scents, to creat a fabulous candle. Will definitely go back for one of the other classes.

Teresa was an amazing host and teacher. Gave her a call about being late and she was very accommodating and grateful. Once we got to the class she caught us up and explained candle making and the different parts quite well. When it came to mixing the scents she was helpful with her own sense of smell and experience to lead us to pleasant aromas.

Our instructor was very supportive, and very clear with the directions. They allowed us ample guidance and time for us to figure out the perfect scents for our candles.
This process was very simple, and yet very fun due to the fun of smelling and combining different scents together.
The entire team at Moonshot was very kind and hospitable. I would love to do it again and create a different candle!

This was an awesome experience - a great idea for a date night or an activity to do with kids / family.
The make your own candle process starts with you smelling a bunch of different candle scents to determine which ones you like. You'll then starting combining scents to figure out which combinations work best for you. Lastly, you'll create your final scent concoction that is mixed with hot wax to create your own candle. Super fun!

A wonderful introductory class! Great for individuals or a team. It was insightful to learn about the candle making process and delve into scent mixing. The instructors at Moonshot Studio are kind and helpful. The studio is also located in lively Noe Valley.

Theresa walked us through the entire process, but also let us figure out what scents we liked together. People were super sweet and helpful. She knew when to come by to walk us through the next steps, but wasn't rushing us through, even though there was also a big group there and they were short staffed. Space was small but well designed; it didn't feel like we were on top of one another.

Our class was wonderful and the main reason why was because of our amazing teacher Teresa! We had so much fun and this made for the perfect team bonding activity with coworkers. We really enjoyed the aesthetics of the studio as well as the time, knowledge, and patience given to us by Teresa and her husband that day. We did not feel rushed and were given clear instructions and guidance! We would absolutely recommend this class to anyone interested!

This was a very fun class, I highly recommend it! I learned the fundamentals of candle making, got to choose from 80+ scents to create my own fragrance blend, and went home with a beautiful candle. The instructor was great too, she helped me get my fragrance just right!

So much fun! Georgia was super sweet and energetic when leading our class. I liked that it was only 4 of us and we were able to take our time smelling all the oil options. Definitely worth spending the extra money to take the class and walk away with a custom candle. Would definitely come back to make another!

We went in to Moonshot studio and mentioned that I had a reservation but one of the workers thought we were doing a regular session. After that, everything was really weird and confusing. We were able to make candles, however, one of the workers we had did not care at all and had a bad attitude. One of the ladies (she was teaching for reserved spot) was really helpful and informative and we wish we were in her session.

One of the ladies (she was teaching for reserved spot) was really helpful and informative and we wish we were in her session. The entire process was not very informative and it felt like we were just told what to do. The pros are that the scent and candle both turned out great and the session was interaction. They definitely could have gave the option to add more things to the candle and/or possibly gave the option to pour the hot wax. If you wanted your own custom candle it was much cheaper of $32 to just do a walk-in (they essentially treated us as a walk-in) than do classbento (the lady mentioned classbento was more informative). Overall, an okay time, there is definitely potential but the workers need to be more lively and the candles are decent. + more
Reply from this teacher:
Thank you for this feedback. I sincerely apologize for this unfortunate and unique situation in which you did not participate in the fuller ClassBento experience that you expected and in which we have always received terrific feedback. You are correct that my staff did not understand that you were attending a ClassBento reservation vs. our regular retail reservation, and therefore did not bring you into the class in which I was leading. To avoid this situation happening again, we will more carefully ask customers about the type of reservation they have before seating them. I'm so pleased that your custom scent-blend and candle turned out great, but I would also like to invite you and a guest back to experience the complete ClassBento class at another time, at my expense. --Teresa (Owner)

I went with my girlfriend to try candle-making as I thought it’d be a fun activity to do. We also really love candles so it was a no-brainer. When we got there, we were greeted by Teresa who was our instructor. She allowed us in early and was very pleasant to talk to. She told us a lot of interesting facts about how candles are made, about the ingredients that go into the candle, and taught us how to combine scents to make our own candles.

This was my first ClassBento and it was a great time for me and my youth (15 yr old). Moonshot Studio is located in downtown Noe Valley so parking may be a little tricky but we just parked a little further away and walked in. Our instructor (and owner) was Teresa and she was so sweet, enthusiastic, and informative. It look about 1.5 hours for us to complete our candle-making activity, which is a bit longer than the class was supposed to take but Teresa didn't rush us at all.
