Target has recalled 2.2 million Threshold candles due to the risk of them cutting or burning people.

The candle’s jar can crack or break during use, posing laceration and burn hazards.

This recall involves certain Threshold Glass Jar 5.5 ounce 1-Wick and 20 ounce 3-Wick Candles in multiple scents listed below. The recalled item numbers are printed on the product stickers located on the bottom of the glass jars.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled candles and return them to any Target store for a full refund, or you can contact Target to receive a prepaid return label to return the candles by mail.

Target received 19 reports of the candle jar breaking or cracking during use, resulting in one minor injury.

The candles were sold at Target stores nationwide and www.target.com from February 2020 through July 2023 for between $3 and $12.
