Sizes and quality

The Candle render is 128 × 128 pixels, the size the game draws the item at in the inventory. It scales up by whole numbers to 1024 px with no interpolation, so the edges stay sharp.

Minecraft candles: recipe, light and colors

The candle is a small light block crafted from a string on top of a honeycomb. There is an undyed one and one for each of the 16 colors, and once dyed its color cannot be changed.

They are not lit when placed: light them with flint and steel, a fire charge or a flaming arrow. One candle gives light level 3, and a single block holds up to four candles of the same color, each adding 3 more, up to a maximum of 12. Water, a wind charge or simply using them puts them out.

Waterlogged candles cannot be lit. One candle of any color placed on an uneaten cake turns it into a candle cake, which lights the same way; once someone eats a slice, the candle drops.

They generate in ancient cities, undyed or white, and in trial chambers, undyed or red. Your hand breaks them instantly.

For birthday, horror or mood video thumbnails, a few lit candles in the dark set the scene with very little.
