Birthday Candles represent the magic of making a wish on your birthday. Just by simply blowing out your candles, you could be manifesting your secret dream, whether that’s unicorns or a trip to Disney World. It’s one of the most exciting parts of having a birthday cake for kids. There’s so much possibility in turning a whole year older. It also gives them the chance to show off how they can blow every single candle out in a single breath. Yes, of course the yummy and multi-colored cake—which will most likely cause a sugar rush later—is still the main attraction, but candles make birthday cake a tradition. So when your little one is listening to you sing “Happy Birthday” with the lit candles, it’s a whole new experience.
