Welcome to the home of Claro Cones!

Handmade in Red Wing, MN
Whether you’re discovering these unique, handmade ear cones for the first time or have been using them for years, your support truly matters. Every order helps keep this small, heart-centered craft alive.
You may notice a few changes. As the cost of raw materials continues to rise, I’ve been looking for ways to reduce other expenses so that the price of the candles themselves can remain steady. One of the biggest costs has been maintaining a full e‑commerce website, and the volume of candles I’m able to produce each year simply doesn’t offset that expense.
To keep Claro Cones accessible and sustainable, I’m shifting to a simpler ordering process.
Once the transition happens you will have three easy ways to place an order:
Thank you for your understanding, your flexibility, and your continued support. These changes allow me to keep creating the high‑quality cones you love while honoring the realities of small‑batch, handmade production.

Bob "the honey man" from Busy Bee Honey Farm in Cannon Falls Minnesota provides the beeswax to make Claro Cones. Supporting the local bee population is important to the health of the Earth and to Claro Cones.
Claro prints our labels on post consumer waste paper. The company will continue to seek out opportunities to reduce our footprint on Mother Earth.
Trimmings and excess beeswax are gathered and used as fire-starters. They offer a wonderful way to start a fire that is chemical free.
Environmentally conscientious packaging is recyclable.
Strips of unbleached 100% cotton dipped into a mixture of beeswax and herbs, oils or extracts. The strips are hand rolled spirally, dripped and left to harden. Our ear cones are then scraped, trimmed and plastic wrapped as pairs with skewers and instructions.
Note: If you would like more environmentally conscientious packaging, we now offer a plastic free option. All of the same scented cones will be wrapped in paper with only 1 instruction tri-fold.

January 2023 brought about a redesign of the Claro Cones brand. Clean and calm label design to support relaxation, balance and healing.

Claro Coning Systems, LLC was originally purchased by sisters Leah Buysse and Anna Boelman in July of 2012 after learning the previous owner was relocating her family and discontinuing production of her handcrafted ear cones. In 2017, Leah became sole owner of Claro so that Anna could purchase the family natural food store, Simple Abundance.

Alternative health products and therapies were common ground to Leah growing up in the picturesque river town of Red Wing, MN. It was a lifestyle and passion she would continue to nurture through various avenues over the years.
Leah completed her Holistic Health Practice Degree in 2005 and has been consulting since then. Through her business, Intuitive Self Healing, she writes intuitive, personalized lifestyle programs for clients, helps with detoxification processes, and has now added hand crafting ear cones to the resume in her spare time.

Thank you for supporting Claro Cones. To keep prices steady despite rising material costs, I’m simplifying how orders are placed. The e‑commerce site is closing soon. Clarocones.com will route you to a page at Intuitiveselfhealing.com (my other business) where you can order through Etsy, a quick Google Form, or by calling/emailing me directly. Your support means everything and I appreciate your patience during this transition and continued patronage.
