About Us

"Crystal Candles started in our kitchen in 2019, when I wanted to share my passion for rocks and crystals with others. I'm an army veteran of Mayan descent, and my wife Kyerea and I are proud Mankato community members. Together, we work to uplift fellow small businesses, community artists, and Indigenous peoples." - Alex Ek, owner and founder of Crystal Candles

Crystal Candles is a proud member of River Valley Makers, a group of small business owners and artists from the Blue Earth County and surrounding areas. To learn more about River Valley Makers vendor events, visit their Facebook page here!
