FAQ
Can I eat a cake with a candle on it?
No. The candle must be removed first; right-clicking the block with an empty hand extinguishes a lit candle rather than eating the cake.
What happens to the candle if the cake is eaten or destroyed?
The candle pops off and drops as a separate blue candle item instead of being destroyed with the cake.
What tool do I need to mine it?
None required — any tool or bare hands breaks it instantly, dropping the blue candle (the cake portion is consumed, not dropped).
Does the candle stay lit after placement?
It only lights when ignited with flint and steel, a fire charge, or a flaming projectile, and stays lit until extinguished by water or player interaction.
