About Blue Candle
Blue Candle is a decorative light source you can place on solid blocks. It starts unlit, and you light it by using flint and steel or a fire charge on it. Water puts it out.
Key facts:
- You can place up to four candles on the same block.
- Each lit candle adds light level 3, so four lit candles give level 12.
- The blue colour comes from the dye, making it an easy way to add themed lighting to a build.
How to get Blue Candle
You can only get Blue Candle by crafting. First craft a regular candle from string and honeycomb, then combine that candle with blue dye in a crafting grid. Blue dye can be made from lapis lazuli or cornflowers. It is not found naturally in chests or sold by villagers.
