Black Candle
minecraft:black_candleBlack Candle is a black-dyed variant of the candle, a decorative light source crafted from string and honeycomb and then colored with black dye. Up to four candles can be stacked in a single block space, and once lit with flint and steel or a fire charge each candle raises the emitted light by 3 for a maximum light level of 12. Candles can also be placed atop an uneaten cake to create a candle cake.
