Description
This set of six dinosaur party cake candles brings a prehistoric scene to the top of any celebration cake. There are three Tyrannosaurus candles and three Stegosaurus candles. Each is cut to the outline of its dinosaur and set on a wooden stick that pushes straight into the icing. The Tyrannosaurus is printed in a deep teal with black detail, its jaws wide open mid-roar. The Stegosaurus is a soft grey with black plates and markings, and both sit on a clean white wax ground. Each candle stands about 10cm tall in all, with 4cm of wax on a 6cm stick, and is about 5cm across and 1cm deep, so they sit neatly side by side on even a small cake.
They are made for the top of a party cake, and the two designs suit a prehistoric theme beautifully. Plant them in a row along a tray bake, gather them in a cluster on a round sponge, or spread them across a plate of cupcakes so each one gets its own dinosaur. The bold printed outlines read clearly from across the table as the cake is carried in. Once the candles are blown out, the dinosaur shapes lift out easily and can be wiped and kept as a small memento of the day.
Each candle is a flat wax figure with its own wick at the top, and the wooden stick holds the flame well clear of the icing. The six come packed together in a card box, which keeps them tidy in a drawer until the day. As with any candle, never leave them burning unattended, keep them away from anything that could catch, and avoid handling them while they are lit. For the clearest effect, set them on a plain white or pale iced cake, where the teal and grey dinosaurs really stand out.
