About Lime Candle

The Lime Candle is a greenish light source that stays unlit until you start it. It is mostly a decorative block, useful for mood lighting, paths, or small builds where a lantern feels too bright.

Key facts:

  • A single lit candle gives a light level of 3.
  • You can place up to four candles in one block, and more candles means more light.
  • Light it with flint and steel or a fire charge, then right-click it to put it out.

How to get Lime Candle

Craft one by combining a regular candle with lime dye in the crafting grid. The regular candle is made from string and honeycomb. Lime dye can be obtained by smelting a sea pickle or by combining green dye and white dye. Lime candles are not found ready-made in the world, so this crafting step is how you get them.
