How to make a Cute dessert candle cakes
Making cute dessert candle cakes can be a fun and enjoyable activity. Here's how you can make them:
Ingredients:
Cake mix of your choice (any flavor will work)
Frosting of your choice
Small glass jars or candle molds
Candle wicks
Soy wax flakes
Candle dye (optional)
Essential oils (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare your cake mix according to the instructions on the package. Once the cake is baked and cooled, crumble it into small pieces.
Mix in enough frosting to bind the cake crumbs together. You want a dough-like consistency that you can roll into balls.
Using your hands, roll the cake and frosting mixture into small balls. You can make them as big or as small as you like, depending on the size of your jars or molds.
Melt the soy wax flakes in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl. If desired, you can add a few drops of candle dye to color the wax.
Add a few drops of essential oils to the melted wax for a pleasant scent. Stir well to combine.
Dip the end of a candle wick into the melted wax and then press it into the bottom of the jar or mold. Hold the wick in place until the wax hardens and the wick is secure.
Pour the melted wax into the jar or mold, filling it about 3/4 of the way up.
Gently place one of the cake balls into the center of the wax. Use a toothpick or skewer to push it down slightly so it's surrounded by wax on all sides.
Allow the wax to cool and harden completely. This may take a few hours.
Once the wax has hardened, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch above the wax. Your cute dessert candle cake is now ready to be lit and enjoyed!
Note: Always burn candles on a heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials and out of reach of children and pets.
