What Is Blue Candle in Minecraft?

A Blue Candle is a small decorative light source with a blue tint. Up to four candles of the same colour can be placed on one block, and each extra candle adds more light.

How Does Blue Candle Work?

  • Place up to 4 candles on one block - each one increases the light level.
  • One lit candle gives light level 3; four candles give light level 12.
  • Light it with Flint and Steel, a Fire Charge, or any flaming projectile.
  • Extinguish it by right-clicking or with water.
  • Waterlogging extinguishes the candle.
  • Candles placed on a Cake become a birthday cake with a single candle on top!

How to Collect Blue Candle

  • Any tool or your hand works - it always drops itself. It must be unlit to drop; an unlit candle dropped in water is fine.
