FAQ

What tool do I need to mine an Orange Candle?

None — it breaks instantly with any tool or bare hands and always drops itself.

How much light does it give off?

None while unlit; once lit each candle emits a light level of 3, up to 12 when four are stacked in one block.

Can I change its color again after dyeing?

No — once a candle is dyed a color it is permanent and cannot be re-dyed or reverted.

Is it flammable?

No, the candle block itself does not catch fire or burn, even while lit.
