First, there was chicken flavored edible nail polish. Then came Extra Crispy Sunscreen.

Now, KFC is getting into the home décor business.

The chicken chain released a candle that smells like the foods it produces.

"What better way to light up your nights than with a limited edition KFC Scented Candle?" the fast food chain wrote on social media.

While the candle isn't for sale, KFC gave customers a chance to win one through a contest that ended Dec. 5.

"To go in the draw to win one just suggest another piece of KFC merchandise you'd like to see from us," KFC New Zealand wrote. 

The post received more than 15,000 comments.

One winner, Shiz Irani, said the company should produce KFC stamps "(because) the Colonel always delivers."
