Thereof, where did candles on a birthday cake come from? It can be traced back to the Ancient Greeks, who often burned candles as offerings to their many gods and goddesses. For the Ancient Greeks, putting candles on a cake was a special way to pay tribute to the Greek moon goddess, Artemis. They baked round cakes to symbolize the moon.
More than just a source of light, candles serve a symbolic purpose for different events in our lives. It is customary to blow out your candles on your birthday. Many people use their age to determine the number of candles to put on the cake. However, as people get older, it is accepted to just use one candle.
What do you make candles out of?
The cake fashion now in my country is to put candles shaped like numbers. If you are celebrating your golden year, then you put 50 on the cake. But ain’t it all the more fun if we light up 50 tiny candles? You blow the cake longer and the photographers get to shoot different angles. Later on you can choose what shots to put in your album.
